 |  A place for my thoughts , activities, and experiences |
First, I'd like to thank SantaBee   for the beautiful awardicon I received for this Blog/Diary. Much appreciated. These are my experiences, adventures, things I like to share, which might be, but not limited to, recipes, healthy living ideas, art, stories, craft work, such as needlework, sewing; wreath making, guitar, homeopathic remedies. Or maybe none of that. Haha I look forward to seeing what kinds of things you might like to share too. Please keep it courteous and kind. This is a friendly place. Update: I decided to change the content rating because of adult subjects. |
| So often we are hardest on ourselves. When I start feeling down, it's usually after I've listened to other people's issues. I'm a good listener, and an empath, and so I end up absorbing thier pain, feeling whatever they are feeling. After a while, I'm overloaded with that from different people. I need to escape and unwind. As for me, sometimes my alone time, can make me think of those people and things of mine that mean the most of me. I may have lost them in death, or worse yet, lost them in distance and circumstance. At that moment, I may be on an empty train car. I have no book to read or phone to distract me. All I see outside the window is a blur of buildings and the ever distancing landscape. The distancing of the rolling hills and trees could be comforting, yet the vibration and loud repetitive sound of the train is persistant. And it ends up heartbreaking instead. Reluctant tears suddenly roar through me and out my eyes, much like a flash flood. I weep, allowing myself this moment, while nobody's around to see. It lasts for a bit, and then I tell myself not to feel sorry for me. Life goes on. Life is also full of blessings. I have people to care for and protect. I refocus. |
