What are some of my baby steps....? I knit, journaled, joined a collage group, and decided I needed to work on my social phobia. I rekindled a very few old friendships, went for walks with people and am still growing a circle of friends. I began to volunteer in small ways at my son's school and gradually took on bigger tasks. I try to walk alot. I wrote poetry--most sucked but some still gives me pleasure. I thought about what might give me pleasure. I work at it every day, little by little, and remind myself to congratulate myself for small 'victories' (which is difficult for me, but oh well....)
