room for little things and big things
I write because I get confused and lost a lot - and so by writing I hope to create
a clarity and figure it out and as my therapist said we are all trying to understand our life
experiences.
Here's one more little thing I'd like to remind myself of in the future...
There's room for little things and big things.
When making plans for my holiday week, I knew I would be around for much of it
since it's my sister's wedding on this Saturday. I have been taking care of life
as usual - and helping my parents when they've needed help.
Today I had only errands planned and in my internal fight between the ideas of
needing to plan a 'stellar' holiday week and also take care of daily business,
I realized there's room for both. I went and did an errand and then was near
"Emil's Bakery" - so I decided to take a stop there and buy myself a coffee and piece
of cake - and ate it on the patio there. Little things are ok to include in your life
and they're just as valid.
This must seem kind of crazy - but I'll make room for both kinds of things in my life
and both have their merits.
I think I will turn on a movie and just enjoy that for a spell - then back out to do more
errands.
Things are good,
peace,

I can get so unnerved by the need to sort through things, as though something is wrong with me...
Do we all have to deal with confusion on a daily basis? or maybe just on those days when we
sort through things - do we all at some point feel that sense of dejection because of it?
I guess part of me wants to know if I am ok - and part of me thinks I have become addicted
in a way to the validation I seek every inch of the way.
time to suck it up and just get back to doing practical things. :) <"}}}}}}}><
just did some errands and then turned on the tely. i have to admit - the tv can really provide some
interesting stuff - but it can also so derail you from your life.
Big hug LC.... I think getting out for a coffee and a piece of cake is a stellar treat for you!!.... We can be grateful for all kinds of things IMHO....
I find if I get too caught up in all of the things that I may not be doing I just fall into beating myself up and I don't think that it helps me so I try not to go there to often...
I'm glad that you're enjoying some time off sweetie.... xo
thanks Jannie!
Hope your week of vacation is going well!
I think it’s healthy to write things out and compose one’s thoughts and reflections. It’s been a weird year seeking human connection so I try to remember that anytime I question the process.
thanks Nikki!
