I know I need to stop being negative and start being positive. I need to be better. I need to challenge myself and do what I want to do and need to do.

Forgiving you made me realize my self worth, which was so longly waited for. I learned how to love myself and turn my weakness into strength.

Last year was a hugely formative 12 months for me, as I managed to shift my work and career towards where I want to go, whilst still finding the time and money to enjoy myself. I felt myself trust my instincts again after a period of a few years, where it seemed like every other thought was one of self-doubt. Plus, I really think that I’m beginning to feel totally settled in myself: another win.

This morning I gave myself two years to prepare for my empty nest when my life will no longer be required to support another life so entirely. Small baby steps toward disconnection in an effort to connect more easily each time. More gently. More consensually. To disconnect from the illusion of connection to others and connect more fully with myself. Sounds fully weird and kind of lonely. But it feels right, somehow. I love you guys. And letting you go is the first step toward recovering myself … [after all], how can I expect you to connect to me if I keep denying my own worthiness? I’m tired of striving toward a mirage. I’m going to sit in this space and take care of myself. And then invite you in to warm yourself by the glow that I’m hoping will emerge. Two years.

For example, it’s important to me to be a good friend and to love others unconditionally. Taking steps towards towards those values give me a sense of worth. It’s also important to me to accept myself as I am AND continually strive to improve. Both can be held as dialectics together; it doesn’t have to be one or the other.

I’m newly committed to self-replenishment, and the buzzword self care that needs re-framing in many ways. In this case, self-care is the appropriate term, and in the past, the responsibility of care has included medical appointments for those under my charge. I have for years been avoiding my own preventative medical care, for various reasons, poor boundary setting on time management, a general attitude of unworthiness or feeling it was unnecessary, and underlying it all, avoiding PTSD triggers, although not entirely consciously.

I am a very anxious person but I pretend to be relaxed so I don’t get judged. I am also afraid of judgment. I feel invisible to everyone I’ve ever met. I love to sleep because it makes me feel at peace. I get along with people who are older than me and I wish I knew why. I am terrified of change but I want change so badly. I am insecure about my body just like every other teenage girl.

I want people to tell me ‘You’ve changed’”. And that’s what’s happening right now. Been hearing, “Peace, you’ve changed!” Yeah, that’s one goal smashed right there.

I don’t know what I’m doing with my life. I’m just winging it and making it all up as I go along, but I’d rather be happy, authentic, and live my truth than be fake and pretend I have it all figured out.

But hey, it shouldn’t matter that much what others think of me. I shouldn’t get in the way of my own happiness. If I want to do something for myself, I can. I don’t have to share everything, I don’t have to show everyone what I can do. I have to believe in myself.
