My Journey

At the post office yesterday I purchased a book of stamps that has been specially created for Virgo babies (I am one - and there is a book for all zodiac's). I rarely read the zodiac's in the womens magazines because I feel that some people take the forecasts too seriously and I hate that some say you are going to have an excellent week and win millions of dollars and others say you shouldn't get out of bed for fear of getting hit by a bus (slightly exaggerated but you get my point). Anyway after reading all the different sections of this booklet, I am blown away by how predictable a Virgo I am. (See post below for the contents of the booklet - if you want to get to know me better ;) )

Reading this got me thinking about how predictable I am in other areas of my life. And I have to say that I am less predictable now than I was before I started this journey. Before, certain events, celebrations, even shows on TV would have illicited a predictable response in relation to food and drink in that I would have had both to excess. Weather would have illicited a predictable response to exercise in that I would not have done any. Emotional curve balls would have seen me hibernate into myself and not express what I was feeling and instead go on a gorge. These 'predictable' outcomes now (more than likely) don't happen. I understand why a few people are suprised at how I act at functions and parties now because I am different. Rather than sitting at a table, or on a couch, with a plate of food and several glasses in hand (I have extremely good balance) I am now up off my assets and mingling and getting to know people - or more importantly - letting people get to know me.
