If You Knew Would You Walk Away
We always live as if things are forever so when they change it’s hard to cope with. What if you knew nothing was forever. That things would eventually change and go away. How would you handle it? Would you let it go? Would you never allow yourself to experience it because you know it would end?
I toy with this. A lot.
No one knows what tomorrow will be like. I never thought after 20 yrs I would get a divorce. Looking back I say I wouldn’t change it. It was part of my path but what if today I knew a relationship may not be forever. Would I avoid it all together or embrace it and be in the moment?
Because heartbreak is awful. Death. Job loss. Breakups. We all have had heartbreak is some form. Does it mean we let it go and not enjoy it before it even ends?
I don’t have that answer. I would say live in the moment because we know all things eventually come
to an end. I would say living is the middle. Not the beginning or ending but middle.
But when you know heartbreak is coming is it ok to stay on for the ride? I don’t know. I don’t know if temporary gratification is worth healing from. Do you?

How Do You Need To Be Loved?
Back to love languages and I tell you I do believe it helps basic needs. It helps you know what people need. Are there more things yes. Of course.
But are you even aware of what YOU need?
Relationships are growing stepping stones. They teach you a lot and you learn about yourself too. It’s not about changing who you are with it’s taking the time to understand them but you must understand yourself first.

What’s Holding You Back?
I once had a friend who always questioned what if. What would people think. What would people say. What if I regret my next step.
I know he’s in the same place. Same mindset. Same state of confusion. Not at peace. Not happy. Feeling stuck.
For what? What was gained?
When do you say it’s my life. My decisions. My risks and changes.
No one could push him. Or you. Or me. Or anyone. We are in control of our life and peace.
Nov 21st
Make that step towards your goals. Don’t let anything get in your way. Don’t allow yourself to get in your own way. No self doubt. No triggers. No insecurities.
That’s not allowed.
Thanksgiving Tips
Just kidding. It’s Thanksgiving in 2020. Please pour gravy on everything, including the pumpkin pie. We all deserve that!
Who or What Keeps You Calm?
Work has finally picked up. Homeschooling three kids has become easier. I notice I started to juggle everything with ease. Yeah took a while but better late than never.
At dinner I mentioned it to my boyfriend. I said not sure what has changed but I am extremely calm amongst the chaos. It’s weird more chaos has started but I am fine with it.
Me he said. It’s me.
I paused for a moment and smiled.
You’re right I said. It’s you.
He’s my outlet. My escape. My go to. My vent to. My laugh with. He calms me. He’s super calm. We hang at night for endless hours and it’s my time to decompress.
I have friendships like this too. Where we hang and I feel at ease and relaxed. I cherish those people.
We all need people in our life who do this. Calm us. Make us feel relaxed and rejuvenated.
Do you have these people in your life? If so be with them more. Escape the chaos. Surround yourself with peace and calmness.
Stop running from life and change who you are spending your time with.
What Are You Avoiding?
I did this before. Years ago. I kept busy so I didn’t have to think. Feel. Process. Face my reality. Stay numb. It wasn’t until I fixed what was making me unhappy that I was able to not stay busy and actually enjoy myself. My life. My current state. Face my truths and feelings. Enjoy the calmness.
Don’t do this. Don’t always stay busy because your reality sucks. Because it’s painful to face. Face it. Heal. Move on and forward.
We live in a society where everything is now accepted. There are no excuses to settle. Ever.
Are You Happy?
You aren’t stuck. Not at work or in a relationship. Never think you’re ever stuck but do ask yourself this:
Are you happy?
