I know a lot of what I'm feeling is hormones. I used to hate getting my period and all of the emotions that came with it. Over the last few months I have tried to embrace those emotions. Just because they are brought on by that lovely rush of tears and the need for chocolate, does not mean that they should be ignored or that they aren't relevant. I see those emotions as primal and uninhibited by the restraints that I put on myself.
Guess what?
Despite that attitude I still feel like crawling into bed and wallowing in my self pity. Everything sucks, nothing is going right, there's so much effort involved in being happy today... it goes on and on right? So deeeeeep breath. How to get over this funk? First off I cleared off the coffee table where my computer monitor sits and I spend a nice chunk of my time, and got it all neat and clutter free . Then I lit a lavender candle and some incense and sat down with a cup of Tazo's 'Zen' tea. Another deep breath. And then I start counting my blessings. I wish to say "No!" to wallowing in self pity. I have so many blessings in my life (including you!). I can accept, and deal with the bad, while still acknowledging the good. This stops me from sinking, from drowning. The good in my life is wrapped around me like a comforting hug.
This too shall pass.
(hey darling, if you're feeling called to, please like me on facebook over on the right side there. LOOOOVE!)
