This week's topic is a bit awkward for me. I really squirm and hesitate to talk about some things, because I have emotional quirks, like everyone else, and this one has been with me a lifetime; so while I'm well-acquainted with it, I'm in the process of overcoming my fears of things (hence beginning the PB Project to begin with). Therefore, this topic in my list of potentials happens to be one I'm ready to stare down and hope not to stumble in the process!
Just know: this is a lot of my head bumbling about, this week, so no promises of eloquence, clarity nor entertainment value. My only goal in the Project is to help connect with those who need it in a way that is hopefully healthy and uplifting. My apologies if I kinda fall flat, this time.
I've been around a while, and learned a few things along the way. I believe one should leave this world a bit more, for the moment shared with it; perhaps it's time I try.

Ignorance Isn't the Bliss You'd Like It to Be
I'm not usually one to directly share links to other entities, here on this blog, partly because I am very aware that there are a LOT of "awareness" days, weeks, months, etc.; but this one is different. This one is important to me, in a very personal and unique way.

How Do I Love Thee? No, Seriously - How?
Okay..so I mentioned last week, as I have before, that I'm a little squirmy with the holiday observance thing. But you know... there are some pretty powerful thingies that can be related to the reasons we celebrate those other thingies!
And I'm all for acknowledging and celebrating powerful, worthwhile thingies! For instance, there is light, hope, courage... and of course love. So please bear with me as I continue to take advantage of the spirit of the month with my topics.

Dancing to the Beat of My Own Heart Strings!
Once again, I'm sitting here feeling a bit torn. On the one hand, February is, in my part of the world, traditionally celebrated (at least the first half) as a month for love. I'm not sure why we seem to have to have a theme for each month, but it appears that love is the theme for February.
So what to do? Go with it, or rebel? *sigh* Choices, choices...

Don't Forget to Use Your Rear-View Mirror!
Perhaps I'm doing this, and the last post, in the wrong order.
I probably realized that when I made the list -
I skipped this topic on purpose, then decided to go back.
Why, you might ask?
