It’s happening again.
When I began this blog, in April, it seemed to be a reaction to keeping so much to myself for so long it all just had to come out. Since then, it has proved to be quite helpful in causing a turn of events in my marriage. Thankfully, things in general have now calmed down immensely and I’m finding room to breathe- ahhh.
But I also see myself bottling right back up again, thinking I can handle stuff on my own.
….” Things are going well, I can take it from here”…..
I’m getting shut in too long for reasons of trying to finish some responsible mom thing at home, not meeting up with my support system, missing some community events because of family illness, etc. This will lead nowhere, and I will only endup frustrated and feeling a bit alone in some of our harder issues.
I learned through this year one very important thing- none of us can make it alone. It’s more than just family, we need community and friends we can be ourselves with too. I use to think I was supposed to do it by myself and be strong enough, know enough, and pull it all off. Not so.
May we all help strengthen one another…..
