Black and White Thinking

So what is black and white thinking? There is no gray area, things are only right or wrong, black or white, yes or no. You think either you can or you can't, there is no half way or half ass. Here is me. Where is my middle ground? I am trying to find it because it is killing me to not have it. Either everything is perfect or I don't do it or become associated with it. Why write about this? Do you think black or white? Either you have a good relationship or you don't, either you have a nice house or you don't, either you have a nice car or you don't, it doesn't have to be possessions. My black and white thinking is about success. Either I am successful or I am not. Either I have a family or I don't. Either I have friends or I don't. How do I accept the middle ground...I'll get back to you on that one, but if you need to, I will bring you on my journey.

  1. Hey Ms. Joni!!! Are you proud of me, i figured this blog thing out! So, black and white thinking...I used to be there, now i only think laundry or no laundry. Anyway, grey has becme one of my favorite colors because living in the black or white got too taxing for me. What are your thoughts?

  2. Please bring me on your journey! I would not want to be anywhere else!! But as for responding to your thoughts I am going to have to ask some questions - in your mind what is success, what is a family, and what are friends??? I think you need to answer those questions to start on your journey. And one more thought - I think you are very successful in friendship (not just because you have me!!!) but because you know HOW to be a friend. I love ya homie!!!
