Note to selfEntry #600651
The modern age of email and how we still can't keep ourselves organized is such a point of humor for me. I sent myself an email back on 11-7-07 which had these words typed into it -- Stern:unforgiving:unrelenting:driven:passionate

The funny thing is, I remember what this was in relation to; I probably wanted to write about it, but did not have the time to do more than note down these impressions while I was at work.

On Sundays I volunteer as what is essentially "Youth Director." Every second Sunday, and oftentimes additional weeks, I am with free-spirited youngsters for an energy-filled hour and a half. One of my "charges" would sometimes push my buttons. I don't think on that day she realized that she'd found a chink in my armour by stating that I was "stern." However, knowing my own internal gut cramp from the off the cuff assessment, I knew that I had to turn it around in my own head, and quick.

I'm sure I wrote something to help me explore and resolve my turmoil. There it is more than this "paper note."
