I'm Not Really Grieving So Much Anymore
03.08.07 (7:03 pm) [edit]
I'm just totally lost more than anything else .
Where is my place in this post personal apocalyptic world ?
I think this is my mid-life crisis.
This cold ,icy weather and lack of light is definitely affecting me as well.
I feel like I am in hibernation.
Now I don't have to endure my mother's foul and bleak moods , my parent's constant negativity and that 's a good thing , but also --who the heck am I and where am I going?
I better find out quick before they call my number and I'm outta here...

it takes a long time to come through this, and then the added "lack of light", i am sure, does not help this mood. i don't know exactly what brought me through to the "other side" nor do i believe i am there completely, but i do know that there is one. be strong and you will find you, i promise. xoxoxo

Seasonal Affective Disorder. I have that, too. Try to pamper April a bit, if you can.
As for figuring out where I belong in the world, what I should be doing, and how I define myself generally, that seems to be never-ending. Maybe it's just a myth that we can ever really figure those things out once and for all. Maybe it's a search for stability that isn't ever within our grasp because our circumstances change moment by moment. Of course, that's just my (possibly confused) opinion.
Moving to a new city is one of *the* most stressful things we can do, right up there with getting married or divorced. Hang in there. You're in my thoughts and prayers. Lots of hugs.

If and when you figure it all out, let me know how you did it.
I think ggirl is right on, "it's just a myth that we can ever really figure those things out once and for all."
10 days 'til Spring :)
