I Realize That I

[The Albatross]

I realize that I am more than happy to wipe my hands of the responsibility for a local pool.

I realize that not every day can be bubbly.

I realize that our lives are going to have to change as a result of my daughters health. She went to a class yesterday about the Fibromyalga. She is in great pain and the days pick her, she does not get to pick the days.

I realize that I am going to have to do some care giving again. I realize that she will have to find ways to manage her disease in the years ahead.

I realize that it is so good that she keeps going to the doctor for help.

My logical rational brain realizes and is trying to help the injured parts of my brain realize that my past has passed.

I realize from what @BlackbirdSinging said above that the parts of me that remember or react don't do it out of choice.

@Junebug That's huge :hug:.

Thank you @BlackbirdSinging , is it? :confused:

Hugs back for you. :hug:

is it? :confused:

I think so. Being able to identify that to me means you're recognizing that you're not just deciding to react or act "badly". Sometimes reactions happen when you're triggered. When you recognize that you're reacting you can start to see that you're triggered. That helps you to start identifying your triggers. And when you do that you can start learning and utilizing tools to work through the triggers and the reactions. At least that's what I think. But I'm definitely not a medical professional. Those are just my thoughts based on my own experiences.

I think so, @BlackbirdSinging , that is, to be privy to, or somewhat less emotional or dispassionate about the fact of reacting, I could see it then. Space between the 'reacting' or trigger and the self-judgment +/or the 'mind's explanations'.

Thank you. :hug:

I realize that I can be happy, or, at least, content. It is alright. The world will not end if I enjoy life. I've been so afraid of living, filled with guilt, that I didn't realize it was okay to breathe. I'm glad I'm starting to feel that again. Hope it lasts.

I realize that my mobile home will sell when it sells and not to stress about it. I will eventually get free of that at long last. I realize that I am moving on with my life in such good and positive ways.

I realize that I have to accept that my eldest son may choose not to go to college. Brings me down a bit, but he has to decide his life, not me. I raised him and gave him roots and wings. I just hope he knows how to fly.
