Heard a song this morning that took me back to the good ol days, and sadness crept in. I allowed myself to lean in to it, feel it and understand it.
I believe that it was the loss of a dream, of something treasured. I took out a pic of h and I and really looked at it.
I'm not sure where that happy full of life man went, or that great r. What I do know is that while I treasure those memories, that aspect of our lives is dead. I closed my eyes and sent him love; more tears followed.
I put the picture away and wiped my eyes. I know that I will feel that love again some day. As in love with him that I still am, I don't even know if I could trust him with my heart again. The man that my heart holds onto faded away years ago. He's not that man anymore.
I am so proud of my ability to let emotions wash over me, where not too long ago I was drowning in them. Maybe I needed that cry, just to let things go. I'm also proud of my gained emotional stability and the ability to gently move back into a state of peace.

That was a beautiful post, as I read I smiled and got tears in my eyes. Beautiful way to express, I struggle with all of my emotions and the fear of sitting with them. This is something I need to work on, thanks for sharing, it is a great idea and I just might copy it to give myself that little push.

Wow stronger, that post brought tears to my eyes as well. What a beautiful moment you had, despite the bittersweetness of it all.
I think I am starting to understand much more the idea of owning our emotions instead of them owning us. And I see it so much in your post.

Yes kd, good reminder. Just as I am capable of growth and change, so is he.
Acceptance, love and forgiveness really are beautiful gifts, aren't they?
Thank you friend

Just bringing this here for my answer. I know you were having a bit of fun. It is a reality for people, especially with young kids...

I'm really excited about our time together, yet anxious over sleep deprivation. Ahhh!
While not real healthy, just understand that this is a temporary sitch / time in your life.
It may drag you down and bag you, but people are able to do this for periods of time and survive... mostly...
Just keep yourself as healthy as possible, otherwise...
