Enough of my random thoughts…between the blog and notes on facebook…It has been fun and really has ‘loosened’ me up in the whole area of transparency. I am realizing I have really only just begun to know who I am as a person and woman. I tend to compartmentalize and like all my ‘stuff’ to be in neat little boxes, only to be pulled out for use when I want. I consider myself a very open, honest and transparent sort of person and I don’t tend to offer information unless people specifically ask. You can ask me pretty much anything and I am willing to discuss or let you know how I feel, think or have experienced in that particular area. I just don’t tend to initiate and offer up stuff on my own without being asked. I don’t mean to come across as closed down etc. but I am married to a man who is always ready to talk and always has something to say. He is learning to not talk as much and give me opportunity and I am learnig to speak up and say what I mean. One of my goals is to continue to come out of my shell and be vulnerable and be known for who I really am. It will be interesting to see how all of this unfold.
this is nice. i am like your husband…learning to be quiet, so Cip can be more open…it seems to be working, lol. Its a challenge for me to zip it…but I think, like you, I am learning more about myself by ‘not’ talking so much, and rather reflecting inward as to my thoughts, responses and motivations…interesting how our creator knows us so well, and what it will take to help us know ourselves at a greater measure. Keep talking…I will be quiet, and listen.

Your words are golden when spoken and really valued. Being vunerable about who we are is not easy for some of us. Hope the unfolding of Annette is a wonderful process for you.
