not me, apparently, because i forgot about my own experiment! the first few days, however, i think i did feel like i was giving more thought and consideration to others. at times, though, this morphed into not being entirely honest with my thoughts and feelings, being dismissive of things that really did bother me. is this less than compassionate? i felt a little like i was taken back to catholic sunday school....to the idea of "impure thoughts".
therapy has taught me otherwise: FEEL and SAY what you MEAN. it is ok to BE less than ok with things that are, frankly, not ok.
this is my new creed, however jumbled. i hope it sticks.
