One of the things I always find so amazing is how a new outlook can really change not only your perspective on things, but bring and entirely new enlightenment on things that may have been confusing you all along. Just this morning, I had another of these sorts of epiphanies.
I've always been bothered by wondering why I can feel so close with so many different people, and on a very emotional level. Like a lot of people, I always contributed it to being a guy or something like "the grass is always greener.." kind of thinking. I wondered if I'd ever be happy settled with just one person, given my draw towards so many...
While talking with a good friend on here, it hit me... the attraction wasn't sexual, it's platonic... I had just been looking at it from the wrong perspective all along. Yes, the desire to have a deep and nurturing relationship was there all along, in honest innocence. What I was feeling was the closeness of sisters. Not a romantic attraction. As I've begun accepting my femenine side and have been nurturing it, my outlook on things have changed considerably. And this is what I attribute my recent discovery to. Being able to accept that kind of thinking has opened my cognative thought to seeing things in a new light.
I'm in awe now, thinking of what else I may discover that has been eluding me all along, just because of a narrow track of thinking.
