I think the snow itself has slacked off or stopped, the winds though have picked up and is well over 100 kph. Supposed to be windy all day tomorrow so we won't get anywhere until the day after. The problem with the wind is blowing snow, it causes whiteouts and you just can't drive safely in it.
Funny thing is, I can play on stage to a bar full of people and get a total charge out of it, but if I go to a bar to see a band, I would get the table in the dark corner that no one is sitting in. I guess when I am on stage, I am in control and in my element, where as just socializing with others at the bar is harder.
This is a social site, its not real life but once you figure out who is "real" and who is not, you can definitely get benefit from coming here. This site and FB is what keeps me from being a total hermit, I'm still in touch with those that matter.
It helps greatly. First step to overcoming anything is first admitting to it. Once that "shock" passes, you will find that it will be smoother going from there on because your not bottling something up inside. It may take a bit of time to see progress but it will set you on the right path.
I have social anxiety, fear of crowds. I used to overcome it with alcohol but when I gave it up, I had no appetite for social situations since. I recently got put on a medication that has helped and I'm in the process of trying to get a handle on that fear and rejoin humanity again.
Everyone I meet, I keep an open mind until I see enough to form an opinion. Often that opinion is based at least in part by my gut feeling. Some people are easier than others, some people it takes a while before you see who they really are.
I think everyone is capable of having good in them, but whether they choose to is another thing, some people will never show good because they like it the other way more.
You're probably right. Oddly enough, most of the time, my "gut" is usually right even when my mind says something else. The older I get, the better I get at sensing people's intentions.
Fear can stand for two things. Forget Everything And Run, or Face Everything And Rise.
Overcoming our fears help us grow and mature. Lots of kids are afraid of the dark in their younger years but they eventually get over it, they grow and adjust. Its a life long process that never stops.

Storm Is On
The wind just hot the house a minute ago, sounded like the wall was coming down. Hard night out there.
