I have many things I want to say

I used to be the most important person in their lives, but they’ve grown up without so much as a backward glance
Keywords: life at 40 , growing up , motherhood , woman
I peer back into the past to see if I can catch a glimpse of an earlier version of me, but that person was young and full of insecurities. And our dreams no longer match up. I’m wiser now, rounder in both body and spirit, and with mileage in my soul, I see barely a shadow of myself in the younger version of me. Like an oak tree contemplating an acorn I suppose. There is something quite liberating in this activity though. Pleasure floods through me when I realise I am no longer as fragile, no longer as desperate to be liked or no longer as hungry to make my mark on the world. I am, I come to a startling conclusion, content. I mull this concept around in my mind for a while. Contentment. It is so far from what I think I wanted in life, and yet, I like the way it feels. Smooth. Pleasing. Comfortable. I’m shrugging this on, like my new furry coatigan, while I work out what I want to do for this next stage of my life. How I want to spend my time and energy, which is less boundless than it once was. And I come to the conclusion that this stage of life is a gift. An opportunity to think again about where to direct oneself. It comes with the acceptance that there is no destination that does not fly past before you’ve had time to unpack and change the bed linen. Life is flow. Life is motion. Life is what happens between events. Life must be lived in the moment.

Despite all eight million outcomes of a life, it seems like mine is supposed to be here
Keywords: {0}
i’ve been wondering if i’m supposed to settle for someone or not trust my gut & shame myself for not having feelings for someone – like I should even though I don’t… I think it stems from a concern that I will never meet someone with the level of understanding & friendship that i’m dreaming of. but then I was listening to this song about this girl who met someone that feels perfect & right & I was like, I mean every love song in the world can’t be lying right. & then I decided that it’s just going to have to stem from faith. & for the time being, i’m going to trust my gut with these things & stop stringing things along that I know ultimately don’t feel right. so I guess you could say i’ve had this hesitant conviction to not lead men on so much. dot dot dot. eek. I can be selective, I rlly can. & not just go with the flow. I think I need to just do less going w the flow in general. nothing wrong w being a girl who knows what she wants. & I feel like in life & overall, I have a pretty decent idea of what I want.

I have to start living for me and because I want to
Keywords: mental health , blog , experiences , healing , loving myself , me , mental health , moving on , recovery , self love , starting over , therapy , thoughts , wellness
I am finding that I have so much work to do in regards to getting comfortable with myself and relying on me. The only sure way to do this is to actually start focusing on myself!

The challenge of waking up each day and figuring out how I can best use my energy and creativity to help others, of keeping going despite inevitable failures, gives a deep sense of fufillment no amount of money could buy
Keywords: art , life changes , spirituality , change , growth , happiness , mindfulness , self employed , work
I will want to do it even if there’s no financial reward at the end. The truth however, is that when you’re in alignment with your gifts, calling, passions – the likelyhood of making money is much higher – the difference is it’s more of a by product that an end goal.

I want to learn from my mistakes but not beat the crap out of myself because of them

And so the next time the voice in your head is beating the crap out of you, see if you can be a tiny bit gentler, a tiny bit more compassionate, and a tiny bit more understanding.

I want to share the happiness I feel
Keywords: {0}
I want the world to feel that way too. It can be a bit much for some, but I realize that if I am feeling all of this goodness within myself, why wouldn’t I want to share it with others. It’s just like if you found a really good restaurant with great food, and service, wouldn’t you want to share that with others? It is an analogy, however, that is what it feels like for me.

Keywords: confessional
This is something that I take VERY seriously. It is beyond important to me to stay true and honor my commitments, whatever they may be. So, in order to keep myself on the right track to regaining some semblance of self-care, I am going to make a commitment to myself

I think sometimes I get too caught up about what others reading (specially those of you that know me) think of me and what you think of my posts, and I end up not really writing about what I want
Keywords: advice , anxiety , blog , blogging , depression , personal , writing
I am going to start writing whatever I want, as if no one is actually going to read this, and see if I am able to communicate better what I think is going on in my life, what my real true feelings are.
