Woke up this morning with this in my head.
What is it like
to wake up
and not dread the coming day
to be glad the sun is shining
to not wonder how to get through the day without chemical cocktails
what is it like
to wake up
and not flinch at your lover's touch
to relish in the warmth of another's embrace
to feel that you can love and be loved unconditionally
what is it like
to wake up
and be happy you're alive
to welcome the challenges the day brings
to look forward to the love and laughter of others
What is it like
to wake up
and feel comfortable in your own skin
to want to grow and change and feel and live
to be content just to be
What is it like....
It's great..it takes a while to get there..just keep on wit the desire to be "a part of things" and it will come I promise.
ReplyDeleteI'm really not trying to be negative on purpose, just couldn't get this refrain out of my head today. So, word vomit. I am feeling a little better today.
DeleteUnderstood, we all have negative and self defeating thoughts..all the time..it;s part of the process and in some way keep us humble. But weather or not we let thought processes "live" there within is the key. I would .think it, have a good ole cry, and ugly cry, then get up wash my face and put my big girl panties on and face the day...as time goes on those moments lessen.
Deletenot vomit - good questions that you seem to have answers for
ReplyDeletenot really but at least i'm asking the right questions
DeleteI agree with Sue. It's good questioning by a man who is working toward KNOWING the feeling first hand.
ReplyDeleteI have a long way to go.
