I REALLY DO NOT WANT TO.
But I know that only way out is through.
It’s not easy living with your emotions on your sleeve. Like frriiikkkkk. Any little thing that happens, I just feel so deeply affected by it and it gets so exhausting.
There’s been so many times where I’ve wanted to react and cry and hide and over explain just to be understood. There’s been so many times where people’s actions have made me want to grow callouses on my heart just so I don’t have to feel pain. Times where I’ve wanted to text and call just to relieve the anxiety and feeling of loneliness.
And you bet I’ve done all of that. But I keep reminding myself of the importance of sitting with my pain. That, yes it hurts, but I am strong and capable of being with this pain. And it will not last forever.
Can I just breathe out a little longer? Can I bring a gentle touch to my own body? Can I send a loving and compassionate thought to myself? Can I spend time in nature, in books, in connection with those that truly love me?
If I keep doing that, then eventually all that will be left is love.
