I love the library but it gives me anxiety

by Andi Lutz

I would say my favorite place is probably the library. Books give me great joy, just being around them feels good. I could sit in the library pulling books off the shelf and thumbing through them all day. Oh, this book looks
interesting, and so does this one, and this one, and this one.

By the time I leave I have a stack of books in hand and lots of anxiety. Now, why would my favorite place give me such anxiety? Maybe it's because I realized there is a world full of literature, not just the library, that I will never get to read. All those sentences that I will never know anything about. There could be some life changing, mind rocking tale I will never crack the spine of.

And I just walked out with my leaning tower of reading material and before they come due I will probably only get through half of one of them. Too many books, not enough time. But oh, how I love the library!

In My Head

How would you describe yourself?

In ten words or less This question created a challenge. I don't like to think about myself much in a judging way. I try not to. I could take the easy way out and say I have brown hair and blue eyes, I am emotional and caring. However, I'm not going to do that. Really describing myself made me dig deep. At first, I thought I am a person who will help anyone who is in need, except that's not true.

Kill Rejection with Positive Motivation

Kill Rejection with Positive Motivation by Andi Lutz Rejection is everywhere. Every time someone unsubscribes from my website I feel it like a punch to my self-confidence. Am I really good enough for this writing thing. Why don’t they want to read what I have to say? Did I write something they didn’t like? But you can’t please everyone. It’s going to happen, you are going to get rejected a lot as a writer. The thing is, you can’t stop just because someone tells you no, or that you need to work on so and so, or you aren’t good enough. You need to keep going, you need to write more to get to the place you want to be. You need more positive motivation and not to dwell on the negative.

Please Invade My Privacy week 7

Please Invade My Privacy by Andi Lutz Week 7 Well people, I am getting very brave. I decided to do something huge. I started a mommy group that walks every day, in order to get out of the house and get some exercise and also make friends. Let me just, say that this was scary. In my head I’m outgoing and everyone wants to be my friend, I’m the life of the party. But really, when it comes down to it and I am allowed the time to anticipate the whole thing I’m a sweaty, bumbling idiot. But I must try, so let’s walk mommies! I found another mom in the area who agreed to meet me to walk. That’s good since I lost my best friend to a poop emergency a few weeks ago (read Week 2.) The days leading up to our walk were stressful, I bought pepper spray in case it was some crazy person pretending to be a nice innocent mommy. But in the end, it turned out to be a real mom, with kids and well, this is what happened.
