Don’t run for too long, because the universe will stop trying to find you. It will assume you’re no longer lost and have found the destination you prefer. It always wants us to succeed but will never force anything upon us.
If I’m honestly speaking, I shouldn’t have gotten into my last relationship when I did. I still had healing to do. And through the uncomfortable moments I’ve had in this season, I’ve grown, and I’m finally the most ready for a relationship I’ve ever been.
I found a developed roll of film from my most recent ex—a month before we were official. I think as an act of closure I’m going to look at them. Not to get reattached, but to look at the snapshot of what was. A simpler time. I may send to her a some point, but not now. Its for me
A mutual friend just told me that my ex has a new partner now. I don’t know why but it’s hitting me harder than I thought it would. I want her to be happy, and if she is, I’m happy for her, but also, there’s a weird finality about hearing this for the small part of me that hoped.
The single biggest shift in my life was in a was in a jail of sorts. And for the past few years I’ve been in a different kind of one, but I didn’t know it. It was one I couldn’t see, touch, or taste. But now that I’m aware of it, I can break free. The ego won for a long while tho
Spontaneous thought: if I was as productive as I was in deep depression and not really recalling the first 1/3 of the year, now that I’m coming out of it, watch out.
I haven’t been this close to putting it all together in probably a few years. And the difference is, I’m doing it without a push or S.O. while forming muuuuch better habits. Knock on wood, I’m going to put this together, then watch out, bc it’s lights out.
Life will consistently test you, asking you “what do you want? -this or that?” And we are posed w/ a decision to choose. Is it the opportunity that’s in front of us atm or stay on the path for what we say we want. It’s always checking in, making sure we want what we say we want.
I’m kind of facing all of my vices at the same time & I didn’t realize it. Pulling back on social media, a new year round game/app with friends that has been taking a lot of time, doing the right things (repeatedly) for a long term relationship to come into existence. Been tough.
You know, I usually know that I don’t want to do something when someone wants me to do it really bad. You don’t have to be talked into the things and directions that you actually want to go. And there’s a difference between a push and a nudge. I’m talking a push. No thanks.
Reciprocity. It’s so important to have reciprocity in all that we do. When are you giving your time to a craft, a person, an activity, leisure, whatever it is...it should be giving back to you. What do you want? And what do you expect for your time and energy?
I got off of social media today for the first time ever. I’ve reached for my phone like 10 times out of habit. When I went to delete the apps, I felt like Bilbo Baggins in LOTR, but afterwards felt lighter. (And no, I only use this for internal thoughts so this one doesn’t count)
You know what makes things tough sometimes is, u get something done & get a response that makes you need to do more, or you go to take an action & are met with several walls in getting it done. Either way the item is not checked off the list or there’s one that replaces it. Ugh.
The inability to focus and follow through on what I need to has reached an apex. And it’s both killing me and angering me beyond measure. I MUST be productive on what I want and need to or something significant will happen, bc I can’t keep doing this BS…
