Weakness
Recently a friend commented on my weak immune system and increased propensity to fall ill this past year. She asked me whether it was because I was getting old, or simply because I was beginning to fall into an unhealthy lifestyle of overindulgence, money, and stressful work.
Thinking back, none of those things seem to be the main contributors. Although the majority of family and friends may think the reasons are due to job stress and money matters, I am seeing a new pattern of anxiety and nervousness that surrounds me, an unhappiness that lurks in the shadows that differs from the so called "monetary concerns"... a small bit of depression if you will...
If you were ME, would you confront the problem or walk away from it?
I am tempted to walk away from it all... but will it save me or make it worse?
Johnny Cash's "Gambler" says it best:

"You got to know when to hold 'em; know when to fold 'em.
"Know when to walk away; know when to run.
"You don't ever count your money while you're sittin' at the table.
"There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin' is done."
I'll guess I'll only find out when the dealin's done :S

Humm.. you have been talking about it for a while. I think getting rid of your problem by addressing the issue is healthy. I mean; you would do the same at work, right? It maybe painful and messy but I believe you come out a better person at the end. Well at least you don't have to think about it anymore as it would be resolved.
