Truly mixed feelings
On many levels, it's a wonderful Christmas. Taking the time to think about what I really want the holiday to be, and making it so. Reconnecting with my family. Taking care of myself.
And yet...at odd moments, sometimes for a reason, sometimes without explanation, I feel weepy. There's so much: anger, rejection, loneliness...
The sadness is fleeting, and I know it's normal and natural. I know it's way too soon to think that I wouldn't feel this way. Quite the opposite. I'm amazed and grateful that I'm doing as well, feeling as healthy, happy, and confident as I am.
But sometimes, it's still hard.
Hope your Christmas is happy. Thanks for listening.
