I Was Gone But Now I'm Back
I’ve been away but I’m back now.
We’ve all had periods when we’ve had to take a breather. Life can hit us unexpected with the big things. And it can wear us down with the small accumulated things that can sometimes just get too much. There’s often no knowing what small thing might tip us off key. Or when we just lose our Mojo and our love for what was once The Main Thing That Inspired us.
I’m looking back now at my last blog and see it was so long ago.
It was around this time that my favourite person in the whole world (save my children) – my beloved Uncle Gerry died. It left me so sad. A bit lost. And I’ll share that with you another time.
And then my beloved son went through his own personal trauma, lost his love, his home and his job. And my home became his home for over 1.5 years.
I carried on, on the surface, but inside we all know that the face we present to the world doesn’t tell the whole story.
I felt I had to be brave as he went through his own meltdown.
People came to me for their own support so how could I show I less Mindful of my own needs?
But today I’m feeling brave enough to move forward. I’ve new projects in the pipeline, and plans to be more.
Just for today though, I’m here, writing again, and it feels good. It doesn’t matter if no one reads it. Writing is helpful. And I’m shrugging off old sadness.
