Just One of Those Days....

I rarely get the itch for writing anymore ...sad, because that has always  been my one and true outlet. However, when I feel it strongly enough, and after not sleeping for days because I have huge changes coming in my life, yes yet again. I feel compelled to let things out that have been broiling, and I know I can be way too opinionated.  Probably shouldn't have gotten back on social media.

Amazing how easily we can be wiped out of their lives. I should be used to it by now? People always tend to give up when it’s easier. I continually ask the question, “Did I try hard enough?” “ Same question I asked as a child. Did they?”
 Eternal question. #LordsPrayer

So sappy today... sorry! Life for me is always turning upside down. I want to blame myself, because that is my natural reaction... I am a very HARD person to love, of this I am aware of, however, when does it become someone else & not about me to let it go, or try to at least to try and understand it? Oh wait, because they deserve to be happy.

I guess I don’t. It’s about me feeling selfish, and I know I can,  however, it’s also about PTSD. Depression. Dissociative disorder. Yeah. I typed it out loud. I am not ashamed. That’s who I am. Without DISRUPTIVE help from the people that think they know me better,  we and you can get better. 

For all of you out there that have felt this...know I understand. So called “normal” people are just better at hiding their flaws. I want to say Gods got this because He does. But, we ALL, need support, even when we are prickly to it. Jesus never gave up. IE: the woman at the well.
 I am tired of excuses of why I see so many hurting… and yes that includes myself. I said I would be transparent, obviously to a point, I need to know, when do we draw the threshold of love? Should there be one? “Labels create limits.” (2/18/18, Kevin Rivers)

 But, to know one of His children is struggling and you do nothing...makes me question, “what Jesus are you following?” First word that comes to mind, is Justification. We are all great at justifying our actions. 

Ecclesiastes 12 3 NIV
Now all has been heard;
    here is the conclusion of the matter:
Fear God and keep his commandments,
    for this is the duty of all mankind 14.
For God will bring every deed into judgment,
    including every hidden thing
Whether it is good or evil.



Take Care of You. There will be days when it is only you and God,

Life as I knew it....

Lost. Confused. Hurt. So many emotions that have consumed most of my life, and have become again intensely prevalent in the last year. When I re-read my journals, writings, posts….I see a trend. I see the problems, but nothing changes. I can’t say I have not grown, matured, and learned the patterns, but there are still the same themes. Love. It is elusive, self-serving, and ambiguous to me. I don’t know if that will ever change, and it scares me. It may sound trivial to many, but when it is not afforded to you as a young child, it does affect your ability to grasp the complexity of it, and create healthy relationships. 2016, like 1983, changed the course of my life. 2016 was a year of a 20 year marriage ending. 2016 was a year of losing the last of familial relationships, I thought I might have. 2016 was a year of my 4 beautiful children experiencing excruciating pain and the broken illusion of a happy family. I would be lying if I said I have not felt like I was the worse failure...

Wow. A year ago to the date.

It is so weird. I have not blogged in forever. I have been writing, but it has been random and in a notebook I carry with me at all times. I was getting ready to check my email and hit my blog bookmark on accident…or was it?? I looked at the date, and was like wow. A whole year has passed. Have I changed at all? For the better? Or the worse? Life is a journey of tears, joy, pain, humility and sprinkled with every other emotion. This has been one the most challenging years of my life. So many different changes. Life looks nothing like it did a year ago. There are things I have handled well, and others that I have botched up horribly. The thing is…I truly believe that nothing we go through is for naught. Does it make it right? No, but I really don’t want to be a victim anymore. How far and how long will we fight the reality of which we are scars and all? It does not have to be a bad thing. If we embrace what has made us, even when it hurts, how much more empowere...

Time to Reflect

This weekend was a roller coaster ride. I found myself caught in a place I thought was long gone. All through grade school and high school I use to watch young girls with their moms, and that ache I felt when my mom died became a huge hole. I was so jealous that they were able to have those moments with their mom, shopping, talking, just being there for them. I yearned for it, but it just wasn't to be. Thus, the feeling of me on the outside looking in. I never felt like I "belonged" to anyone...I always felt "pushed" onto people...not a good feeling. When I would hear my friends bad mouth their parents, I would tell them to "be glad you have them". It was put in front of me this weekend. I didn't see it coming, and it hit me like a blow to the head. I began to feel inferior. I began to play the tapes of "I am not good enough", look at all the mistakes I have made, I don't deserve all the things i have been blessed with after all the t...
