I don’t see the spirit companion stuff that I do for others as personal work, because it can be incredibly draining as well. My own work, while it may at time involve work partners, is not what I was referring to. I’m talking about counseling other people.

I get almost no feedback on RTV, and you nailed it. Maybe I am just really immature, because I do start to burn out if I have no praise for an extended period of time. It’s hard to admit that, but it’s true. I’ve lost jobs over this in the past, and quit them, too. I recognize that it’s ridiculous, but the fact is that it’s a factor in my happiness both historically and currently. I’m working on that and I’m really mortified that I’m so incapable of knowing my own worth in work-oriented situations. But I think part of it is that I really have no way of gauging how many people read, and I am sort of lost on how to find out. This goes into a whole tangent that I don’t want to get into this second.

I guess I never thought of it as community work. Hmm. I would like to find some ways to get a better understanding of who’s reading than Google Analytics. heh.

Did I mention I have a 7th House Sun?

I don’t have anyone’s phone number memorized except those of my immediate family. I need to send out another “lost phone, please send your number” emails, I guess.

Thanks for the nice words on Rending the Veil. I’m still waiting for a sign from the Universe as to which way to go. Meridjet’s been largely silent this past week, except for one intense dream. Unfortunately, all I remember of this dream is his voice and the fact that he was explaining something. I also had the feeling there was a sternness attached to it. But that’s it. Very frustrating.
