Who Am I?

 

I don’t know

I really don’t know

I care

Caring isn’t enough

It’s complicated

Moving forward seems very unclear

Trying to acknowledge past horrific errors I’ve made

Trying to better understand myself

Am I capable of being ….

Who am I?

Who should I be?

What should I do with my inconsistencies?

What about my physical pain?

What about my age?

Do I need to be alone?

Am I still emotionally alone?

Are there blinders in front of me?

Where are the flowers?

Where are the gentle waves?

Where is the warmth?

What about my passions?

What about other(s)?

Am I “the autistic one” or

Rather

One who has varying significant parts?

Where am I flexible?  

Where inflexible?

What is ultimately fulfilling?

Am I listening?

Will I continue to listen if I am listening?

Will I start to listen if I am not listening?

Overlapping – blending – is very hard for me

I am trying

I hope that I will succeed

Two days later at the funeral, I was still being “a man” (i.e. not crying).   Until I was in my second men’s group around age 31, I didn’t allow myself to cry .    I rationalized this by saying to myself:   “ How does x compare with the death of my father ?”. I am self-identified as a   Jewish man .    Growing up that meant being intellectual and not emotional .    Our Sabbath dinner was the only time in the week, when we couldn’t read at the table.    While I was “schooled” on feelings through my men’s work (, most significantly through helping co-found Men Stopping Rape, Inc. in 1983), it was only several months ago that I was able to first
