Dismantling Myths
Jan. 10th, 2005 07:21 pmI have spent the last year dismantling a myth, and I'm finally beginning to see some progress.
I call it a myth because it is something that is not based on literal truth but which has the power to change my behavior. I consider myths the truths that are not literal, or are beyond literal, which inform and alter my life. This is a particularly personal myth, and one that has made my life more difficult for the last decade, at least, and possibly the last decade and a half.
Chocolate (and sugar) make me happy.
( All the gooey details )
