My breakup with Haines

Haines and I are taking a break from each other right now. We decided to start seeing other people. We remain open for a future relationship, but at this point in time, we have decided that it would be best for both of us if we took a break from each other for a while. We will have one last fling as my brother comes into town tomorrow and we hang out in the beauty of Haines for the weekend, but after that, I will be leaving SE AK for the remainder of 2007.
I know that I love Haines, and part of me always will, but I have some stuff that I need to work out a bit on my own before I can go back. Even being in Juneau for the past couple days has helped. I'll continue the blog updates as I am back in the seattle area for the rest of the calendar year so you all can remain updated on how I am doing as I try to see how I can work out the negativity that I have towards myself.
My big problem seems to be that I have made other peoples' opinions of me more important than my own opinion or God's opinion, and Haines feeds that problem pretty well, so I'm going to go try to work through it in a place where I am not as tempted to continue pushing on doing new things all the time.

prayer requests
~the ministry that i feel like i abandoned
~the relationships that i started to build and am now leaving
~that i can re-center myself on what matters and not worry about the opinions of others quite as much
