As with the first time around with the loving-kindness
exercise, I had a hard time with it, for the same reason as before- it made me
want to sleep and is also too “out there”.
I know these things take time, but I don’t think these exercises will
come together for me because they are not something that interest me.
For the assessment portion, I feel that the area in my life
that is ready for development is biological. I chose this because I am in my
30s and not married, and lately I have been feeling like there is a piece of
the puzzle missing, and has been causing me to feel bouts of loneliness. I
think it is finally time to start focusing on finding love and starting a
family. I have shut this part of my life out in recent years because I just
haven’t had the time between work and school, but I am almost done with school,
and can devote some time and effort in completing my own personal puzzle. Specific activities I can do is to start
signing up for community events and activities that interest me, and start
joining social groups. Since starting school, I haven’t had much time to go out
and do things, so I think getting exposure to people other than my family and
friends will be a huge step in this area.
I know that I have a problem connecting with things that I have no interest in. I too had trouble with the loving-kindness exercise. As for the assessment portion, I found that my area that could use development is worldly. I guess that kind of ties into developing in the loving-kindness area. I am very loving and kind but there has got to be an exercise that I can connect with to develop in that area. Based on your reasoning, I can see why you identified biological as your area and I wish you the best in finding a great husband to start a family with. They say that good things come to those who wait and you have waited so I have faith that your good things are closer than you think.
