Thursday
Tomorrow’s Friday. I can’t begin to describe how happy I am. I’ve made it through four days at work - one more left. I’m very proud of myself, actually. Granted, I’ve treated myself to a few more mochas and lunches out than usual, but I’ve been in excellent company these past few days. It’s really amazing how surrounding one’s self with people that are both supportive and realistic can really help. I’m very grateful that no one is babying me or putting their own lives on hold just because of what I’m going through. I want life to go along just as it always has. Everyone is just being a bit more attentive than usual, and I’m comfortable with that. This experience has really strengthened some of my relationships, and shown me who truly does care about me. These friends have been insistent on being here for me, yet are not smothering me or pushing me to talk at the same time. I initially thought I didn’t need anyone - I would just get through this by myself. While I have no doubt I would have eventually reached this stage of near-peace on my own, I can only imagine how long it would have taken me if I’d not been around such wonderful people.
