What you wrote above was simple and true – I love and support you koeksister in all things (even though I come out a bit harsh sometimes)

Nothing specific. I’m just re-emerging after getting my head around a recent painful disappointment. I was really just keeping myself in check by writing it and thought it might be helpful to a couple of other people if I write something instead of keeping it all to myself.

This year has felt like a process of learning to trust, not in others so much (which I tend to do far too easily), but in how I’ve been held throughout life, always been okay, or come out the other end of a painful experience better off. How everything just works itself out in the end. To live without fear.

I can’t see it right now so clearly, I’m still in the woods, still hurting, but I believe it will work out better. Especially if I stop fighting, stop trying to control everything. Just let things flow naturally in whatever way they like.
