Yes it is a marathon, and just when I think I'm at the finish line something pops up and I have to start all over again. But that might be a good thing. At least I finally noticed the way I am viewing entertainment and realize it is through my warped filter. It's very hard to remove that filter even now that I am aware of it. Kind of unsettling now that I am observing myself. I do wonder if I will ever be able to view a show how others view it without reading so much into it.
Congrats on your new work opportunity, sounds exciting but I understand the discernment of the reality of possible problems. That can be a positive in and of itself, as we are prepared to deal with situations in ways others don't understand.
