Happy Day 10!
I've said it before, and I'll probably say it again, I love this chapter!
I really need to work on knowing myself in the three areas Miller mentions, I tend to be a generalist.
I keep thinking of the point Miller made in another chapter about emotions signaling imbalance when I was reading about "divine discontent". I'm not sure I fully understand what Miller is trying to say through the Emerson quote because it was a little over my head, but I think what it means is that change is something that happens? I always have thought constancy was a virtue, that there are areas in your life that you will be more or less the same in, and it is true that change is always happening if we want it to or not.
Maybe this is a personality thing, but I have frequently wished for constancy. Maybe there is a paradox between the need to change, and the need to have constancy. Maybe I also need to consider the possibility that the only constant is change.
I will be working on understanding myself better in these three areas and try to share what I have learned through introspection here. My goal this weekend is to think on these three areas.
Well, that's all for tonight. Have a good weekend!
