I have a hard time figuring myself out. I wonder if I'm more normal that way, or if somehow I am really, really different. But Sundays do something to me that often times is not comfortable. I'm am feeling that right now. Here I am near the end of the day, and I do not want Monday to come. But I am not very crazy about right now either.
Earlier today was okay. It was nice to get back to our ward after a week off, and coming home to just Sheila and I for a quiet day seemed really good. But as the day has passed I am feeling negative about myself and I don't really understand why. I am trying hard to examine me and figure out what is going on inside, but all I can tell is that it is really a bit of an unpleasant feeling. It is not really new. I have experienced this on Sundays before. In fact, for a long time it was pretty much the norm. I couldn't understand it then and I can't understand it now. It is going to require a lot more study and introspection, and who know, maybe I never will find a satisfactory answer. Perhaps the fact that I feel like I never got last week closed off because Richard did not come back after leaving the office on Friday morning is part of it. I feel unsettled about where I am. So that should pass by tomorrow as I expect that he will show up and I can settle that situation in my mind. I know that it is related to Sunday being Sunday, but the why of it all still eludes me. So maybe it will go away as Sunday goes away and I won't be able to study it out because it will be gone and replaced with Monday and that brings its own new set of parameters and feelings. So I may have to wait until next Sunday and see if it happens again.
I really am my father's daughter. It is self doubt you are feeling. That constant feeling of not being enough. It is a hard balance to find. Always trying to better yourself, yet being able to accept who you are. I struggle with the same thing every day.
