This evening I fly out to Dallas-Fort Worth for a three-day gymnastics meet. I'll compete the floor, rings, high bar, and vault. I've been practicing for seven months. I'll be sure to have the routines recorded and will compile some highlights. Check back next week :)

I scheduled an appointment with a counselor in regards to my last week's concern. I was telling a dear friend who recently moved cross country about my disjointedness--how I feel lonely and disconnected from my surroundings. And she asked me, What are you doing for other people? When's the last time you did something that wasn't for your direct benefit or improvement?

And I realized it's been so long since I've volunteered, helped a friend move, dropped things to make someone's life easier. I think I've neglected that.
