By saramyriadIt’s been a little over two months since my last post. This isn’t terribly new for me, because as things in my life ebb and flow, so does this website. I’ve touched on that before, so I won’t belabor it now.
But if my previous few posts have given any sort of indication, there’s been quite a shift in my life. A very important relationship came to an end. I am sad it happened, and at the same time, I know it’s what I needed for myself. And that’s why I walked downstairs that day and said it was over.
But a little family, one I was part of, is now broken and scattered. And I am having to relearn myself, as I am now, not the person I thought I was when I was fitting myself into neat little labels. I am so incredibly grateful for the friends I have who support me and don’t allow the negative thoughts to take hold. The ones who, rather than assuming I was fine because I “always am so strong”, messaged or called me every few days to ask how I was and to remind me that I’ll feel more like myself with time.
It’s been during these times and a particularly quiet Christmas that I examined what I want for my life, emotionally and creatively. I chose hope. I chose to do it scared. I chose metamorphosis.
