The man in the mirror

So day 7 is in the can for me, and I’m looking forward to day 8. Things have been really good so far. The guide has been helpful, but what has impacted me the most is community with others. One of the things I find me and my friends thinking about is really examining ourselves. It’s funny, life is so busy, you can go a really long time without ever having to take stock of yourself. You know, who you are, who you’re becoming… what you’ve done. This is forcing me to look at “the man in the mirror”. I wrote this blog a long time ago on my own site, and it was called “Lucky Vampire”. It was basically about how vampire’s are so lucky because they can avoid having to see themselves in the mirror. I’m still envious of that sometimes. I challenge singles, all of us, to really look at our past relationships. What have we done that we regret? What have we done to sabotage something good? What patterns do we see ourselves fall into? And maybe, if we’re lucky, what have we done right?

    Nice thought. Lucky Vampire.

    Thanks for commenting on our blog about the 30 day sex challenge (http://blogs.covenanteyes.com/2008/02/19/30-day-sex-challenge/).

    I see in addition to Derek Webb you are a fan of Dave Matthews Band, Counting Crows, Andrew Osenga, and Nickel Creek. Sir, you definitely have taste.
