I'm so sick.
And I feel like my body is trying to tell me something. Some combination of the coughs and sniffles is starting to resemble morse code/smoke signal like communication. My ears are perked and I am listening...
I get it. I need to stop. I need to take care of myself. Not just in terms of my colds...but in terms of life. I have not been in a good place lately. The break-up took several unexpected turns and I feel that with this horrific cold, it is my body's last final purging of all the distressful negativity I've been dealing with.
I've been focusing too much on pleasing others that i forgot how important it is to please myself. A day and a half before my 29th birthday...I get it.
I promise to stop, look, and listen. You know - someone once said that I never look back. And I don't think that's entirely true. I very often look back - our life journeys are full of incredible lessons and moments we should never forget. But, while I do look back - I don't dwell...and I certainly don't live in the past. That's for damn sure. Moving forward...that's what it's all about. Wondering what the next turn will bring...holding on to the tools I've gathered...
The aftermath of this break-up is very reminiscent of what happened after me and my ex-fiance broke up. Mind you - there are incredible differences and the one with the ex-fiance was dirty. maniacal, and wrought with horrificness. Still...I feel the need to breathe and it's all very suffocating.
I just want to sit in my own space, digest, and move on. What's done is done. No more drama. Time to let it all go and be rid of the negativity.
Purge away, body of mine. Purge away...
sick,
life,
break up
