Kol, you must excuse me if I'm totally wrong here, but I felt like I wanted to write you a few lines.
I've been following your journal for a while, and one thing I've reflected upon when reading your latest post is that your perspective is often involving how other people perceive you, even if not obvious, that's the impression I get.
I can empathize with this, as I have been trying to move my life from an "forced-extrovert"-life to having the option to keep to myself, more or less, all day if I want, and only socialize when I feel like I want to.
That has given me the breathing room to find the way into myself, and find a footing which I can more easily gravitate back to when I start to feel myself deviate toward focusing to much on other people's impression of me rather than my experience of life and the emotions that emerge within me.
Just though I would share a few words about this. OF has helped a lot with this, and perhaps have done you some good in the directions you are needing to find inner balance. All the best, hope it didn't came trough as nosy or arrogant.
