I barely have any idea what's going on. So to hear an outside opinion from someone who has space? Is great. Especially when it's positive and suggests what I've been working at is... working :)<br /><br />Strangely (or maybe not so strangely) enough E, I have a little bottle of playa dust on my kitchen table. Am hoping that will help.. somehow ;) Thanks. For the compliments... reminders not to be so mean to myself and for the cool thought.... "try not to let the everyday grind dull your shine" I like it :)<br />Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15353740485888176936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32545265.post-82793944394497648952014-09-18T11:18:48.955-07:002014-09-18T11:18:48.955-07:00I'm glad you had such a good time and came bac...I'm glad you had such a good time and came back feeling so good about yourself. I really hope you can find a way to bottle that feeling and keep the bottle near by unti you go again.<br /><br />Like I've said before, I truly think you are hard on yourself. You come across as a smart, articulate, fun, and good person. From the couple of partial pics you have posted, I'm guessing lots of people enjoy looking at you. I suspect the confidence you have developed in the past year is a large driving factor in how you felt when you got home.<br /><br />Try not let the everyday grind dull your shine.

Like that's at least one element of the Burning Man experience that words aren't going to really manage to convey.<br /><br />Also, it make me sad to think of how the every day routine is going to wear away at you feeling perfect. I really hope you manage to hold on to most (since I couldn't expect you to hold onto all) of how you felt, because it sounds pretty wonderful. I think you can.<br /><br />I do think, from reading your blog this last year, that the process of your feeling not ugly and not unattractive has been happening for awhile. Burning Man 2014 might just be a convenient marker for the change, rather than the catalyst?<br /><br />I guess what I'm probably thinking/trying to say is that from what you've been writing for the last while, you've been doing really well at keeping the bitterness, stress and angry away, and bringing the relaxing, beautiful and attractive in. Which makes me hopeful you'll manage to hold on to your feeling good (if not really good, because *things*) for a lot longer.<br /><br />Jason Langloishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02507550527211520786noreply@blogger.com
