Finding the Middle

I'm an extremist.  I don't believe in grey areas...(I don't even like the word gray because no one can agree how to spell it. I looked it up...both grey and gray are acceptable but "gray" is the American preferred version...I currently think America is wrong on this though so I stick with my original spelling.)

I'm either utterly obsessed or completely uninterested. I'm either having the best day ever or the worst. I'm either checking everything off of my to-do list or not even writing one.

This is a problem in every aspect of my life as you can clearly see.

I struggle when it comes to finding middle ground in myself, in my faith, in my day to day life, and in everything else it seems.

It's the years of struggling to be a perfectionist that has finally caught up with me.  If I can't be the best then I might as well not be anything, so I might as well not even try... (I wouldn't want people to think that I'm trying and just not succeeding.)

Where did my hatred for the middle come from, and how do I fix this?
