I've kinda been living in my head these past months. I've come up for air a few times. Looked at either the first posts in my reader, or a few of those in my notifications or emails. I'm not sure who decides what shows where. I haven't been around recently. Not on here. (Nor on…
Thoughts.
I'm sad. Someone messaged me a really gorgeous message that it's been a while since they've heard from me and they're a little worried and could I please respond. No pressure but yes pressure. I'm sad. I'm sad I scared her. I don't even know if she was scared. I remember TC telling me when…
Relationships, boundaries, and responsibility 3
https://www.instagram.com/p/CG4z2--D-Cu/?igshid=1uxak0kmhdnoo Saying yes, taking responsibility, gave me the right to exist. K, so I'm speculating here, but I'm trying to put my thoughts into words, and either it's true, or it's not. I'm going to put it down. And it could be I'll turn around one day and say that this is nonsense. I grew…
Relationships, boundaries and responsibility 2
I began writing about saying no. And I wanted to continue it. https://www.instagram.com/p/CG4z2--D-Cu/?igshid=1uxak0kmhdnoo I said no. I actually said no. It's both strange, and awesome. Amazing that I put myself first. I was asked to do something really small. It wasn't really what I was asked to do that was hard. It was that she…
Relationships, boundaries, responsibility
I've been meaning to write for a while. I'm in that space where I haven't been posting on instagram either. There's so much to say. And. I don't know. Too much. It's after midnight. I should be going to sleep. And I hate posting on these days because Friday is a kindness post and Sunday…
Sunday sunshine and sparkles – 13 year old buys his mother a car
This is more than sunshine and sparkles. Yet it fits into this more than my F:AK (Friday - acts of kindness) posts... these teens inspire me and show me how much is possible. https://www.instagram.com/p/CE-IuSTHoX1/?igshid=1b7ojmwl9pp0h
MBSR (3) – Mindfulness and grounding
What does mindfulness mean? What is mindfulness? What does mindfulness do? The way I'd put it simply is being present. To be mindful is to be aware. To be present. Am some people think mindfulness is the same as meditation. Meditation is focus and stillness and is really a different ballgame. It's got some similarities…
Random thoughts
Today's been pretty good. I don't think I'll sleep until I get some of this down... This morning I took my mother out. Didn't really do anything. Then went shopping where I found cute sandals for 12 and an easy soft top I like for 14. Then nothing. Then ran to a friend and walked…
Can I put myself first?
I've written about this before, I think. A friend who is struggling wants a lift today. It would take 2 - 3 hours of my time. I have the time. This morning was tough and I didn't have the headspace. I knew I didn't have the headspace. As a side note I just curled up…
Tone-Deaf? Acceptance of others- reblog
I don't usually just reblog posts but the message here is timely and gorgeous. We're all part of one whole.... Just as a literally tone–deaf person is unable to comprehend the differences between musical notes, a metaphorically tone–deaf person is unable to comprehend the different facets/nuances of a given situation. A statement such a person makes might also be…
