I Found My Psych Profile

I was cleaning my ever so handy tray just beneath my mini-bar. Its a simple stand that collects whatever I may have in my pockets as I walk in. Wallet, keys, a receipt or two, change, my watch, a few beer caps, chap stick, money clip, yada yada,,,,a few things I may need as I walk out the door are there. Its nice; it's accumulated a lot of stuff since the past few months.

I sat on the carpet and began digging through it. I found some receipts back dating to last summer: HEB, Chili's, Crescent City (my favorite restaurant), Pacific Seafood (Fresno, CA from my training back in the summer), Academy Sports, Devotion to the Chaplet of Mercy brochure (from whenever, I'm always reading stuff from St. Stephens), and a few other things. It was a freaking mound of crap. So there I was cleaning it up while I was watching Coyote Ugly. I had never seen that movie before, but I'm glad I caught it this time around. That Moynahan girl,,,wow!

I came across a piece of notebook paper. As soon as I saw it, I remembered what it was. It was from a student of mine back in 2004 when I taught back in the day for a charter school. She had been seeing a psychiatrist as she later told me and decided to do a profile on me. She was very sharp, savvy, fierce,,,,,,,,I loved her! So I'm sure she picked up on a few things from her shrink.

I decided to keep it in remembrance of her and my days back at the school.

Here is exactly what she wrote about as she decided to do an observation on ME........


I Past: A young craftsman, quick study very advanced w/ conscientious effort. Your success must have been achieved by old fashion hard work.

II Present: Fiery, passionate, and ready to take on the world. Shows a sign of an explorer, signifies travel, adventure, a well-needed change of residence. You lack focus and change course in midstream. Often departing impetuously.., your also quick to anger and sometimes tend to pick your own fights.

III Helping/Distracting: Don't lose sight of other circumstances as you try to balance two areas of your life....Don't take on too much....you cant handle it....just yet.

IV Obstacles to Overcome: STOP DELAYING THE INEVITABLE, Indecision can lead to missed opportunities

V Attitudes of Others: Rounded by danger, some people don't like you, they hide like cowards. If bad news does come, face it squarely even if there's nothing you can do.

VI What To Do Now: They say you cant move, like your holding on w/ your feet loosen your grip on material things. Let go of the past issues so rebirth can occur. Accept the change....that's partly on whats holding you back.

Well..that's a very interesting theory there, C.
