complicated
I know I am not alone in having some complicated relationships.
I try my best to not impose my ways on others and I try to
interpret frustrations and upsets and reactions and not personalize them.
I love my parents and my family. I love Blue too. I love him
because he is a wild animal and yet I can still love him and he teaches
me to love him even when his snapping, scratching or biting nature comes
out. Because I know, that is in part his nature and it's real important and
wonderful to still love him..

I’ve wrestled with my sense of today while trying to get to bed early
And I just remembered that I need to affirm myself and that is part of being self responsible with my feelings. I realize we may all be dealing with complicated relationships but we can’t live in depression. While trying to sleep it was like I was butting up against a sad brick wall. So, we must pick ourselves up be self responsible and learn to affirm ourselves in an imperfect world with imperfect relationships and keep our dreams alive.
We may feel kind of shaky at times too but keep on keeping on. :)
to my heavily psychotheraputed senses, relationships are far more simple when i take them one interaction at a time. methinks the place where they complicate is when i try to pigeonhole them. a father can be a friend, son, lover, mentor, collaborator and many others.
gaurantumdeed that we all feel shakey at times. even when we do naught but sit and calm our shakes, we keep on keeping on.
onward through the fog. . .
