What are the things you like about me? Don't say my strength and daring.

I feel like I've lost touch with a lot of things inside myself. My emotional skin has grown thin and to compensate (or overcompensate.) I've become more standdoffish and stilted; the same things that I find and revile in most people I meet. So I need some humbling and grounding

I've been battling that fun versus stability conundrum for years now and don't really feel like I've gotten any better at it. One month it's all fun and chaos and spontaneity the next its all business. The older I get the more important it seems to find that balance. I keep striving for more stability but when I achieve it I feel so old and boring that I slingshot the other way. I think I've finally found a decent compromise but it's simply a matter of resisting the impulses for complete craziness.

I never thought of it that way. maybe... but I feel like it's kinda a unique thing. I feel like most ppl or perhaps more mainstream ppl like to have that push away from their party friends. it makes them feel like they're "settling down" more. Also, it's not the partying or drinking that I miss. It's the all night paint marathons. the weekend drop everything vacations. the crazy run-into-the-night screaming and dancing that I miss. and I'm not sure how much of that I see in my friends anymore
