I Realize That I

I am realizing that the older I get the less I know, and am okay with that. I am going to be learning the rest of my life and I realize that I have a long way to go in my personal growth process. I realize that I can only really grow on the inside when I am in a painful process and that I do not like it but I do love where the good comes out of the bad, most of the time.
 
I realize that I'm not always emotionally honest with my therapist in therapy. Not that I lie to her. I don't. I tell the truth about my experiences and what I'm feeling. I do however realize that when I practice avoidance in a session it's kind of the equivalent of withholding. If I'm avoiding something then I'm withholding my emotions from not just myself but, from her.
 
I realize that a container of non dairy creamer falling off the counter, the lid coming off, and the humidity in the air can cause it to be like glue on the carpet... especially if it fell off during the night and I didn't know.... and that in PTSD land, that is permission to have a complete and utter meltdown first thing in the morning. Which then forces choices... back to bed, or clean up the mess. deep sigh.
