Out of step
I woke up this morning, having rested very well. I forgot it wasn’t the weekend still. I just slept very deeply and soundly. I drove to work and worries about the day seemed to sneak their way into my mind. I’m now waiting for work to start and I’m looking for consolation. Do I turn to god at moments like these when I feel tenuous lonely and unsure? Do i turn to a partner (if I had one) or just give myself a good pep talk? Writing it here helps.
I guess a lot of us at times have to deal with moments like this.

I think all of the above are good options..... When things get rough for me I usually turn to prayer.... I also turn to gratitude.... Things never seem as dark to me when I have things to feel grateful for
I used to write out 5 things to be grateful for daily and it truly helped..... Big hug Marky.... xo
thanks Jan! I appreciate reading what your resolve is!
I came home from work and now transitioning to being on my own is very much welcomed but also rife
with pitfalls. I just need, like i did with my resolution to work forward today, to find meaning to the work and life here at home.
Finding the personally meaningful just helped me own my work today and feel like I was owning at least part of my life. So I came home and I set out on the drive back and now I'm home, ate lunch, dressed, did the dishes
and I'm now drinking coffee. On the drive home I got a little crazy - and here while at my place
I've had ups and downs. I think I am nitpicking too much.
I just need to keep finding the personally meaningful attributes to what I am doing.
I'll try not lose sight of taking care of the day while 'sending that meaning'
and keep on keeping on.
god is always my first stop when i am looking for support, especially when i am sitting in a pre-dawn parking lot. i doubt my marriage would have lasted 42 years if i turned to hubby for support during the pre-dawn hours. even my peer supporters get testy during those hours. god i can call on, 24/7. she often guides me to where to look for human support.
Thanks Arfie!
