The feeling of the unknown
Throughout my transitions I've made once my mom passed away had me
thinking. Did I make the right decisions in regards to my life, my child's life?
Did I run away to forget that she was gone? Am I depressed and I don't know it?
Why do I cry? Why do I feel so lost yet everyone around me is moving forward.
I have a right to hurt but do I have the
right to hide that hurt. I smile on the outside but my spirit yearns for help.
It's hard to pray, it's hard to believe that things are going to get better.
How can I feel ok when a part of me is gone? I reverted back to ways that I
asked God to take away. I lash out to those who don't deserve it. No one knows
my hurt, no one understand that I sometimes want to disappear. Here I am again
at a place where I found happiness but the happiness is at a distance and I'm
trying to reach it. I speak joy into my life but because my faith is weak the
joy is not as abundant as I know it can be. I prayed and ask God to give me
peace. (But I'm still searching for it)
Church isn't the same, I sit and I listen
as the words don’t penetrate in my soul as they once did. What's wrong with me
I say? Who is this person that I see before me. I don't recognize myself
sometimes and the truth sometimes scares me. I know that God has a plan for my
life but I don't know what that plan is. Maybe the reason I can't find a job
because I need to be back at that place where I recognize the person who looks
back at me in the mirror. That's it, I need to look at her and tell her that it
will be ok. It's fine that people know my truth. It's ok to know that I hurt
and sometimes I don't know why. It's ok to learn that I am not made of steel. I
can't catch everyone else tears anymore and I can't hold them up if I am not
standing on my own strong foundation. I need to rebuild those cracks that my
foot keeps getting stuck in. I need me!
Hello Jeanine,
You are loved,
liked and blessed and don't you ever forget that. Let's just take it one step
at a time. If you fall get up and keep on going. You will have some bruises
along the way. You will have some disappointments as well but remember I am by
your side always and forever.
Love
Me!
P.S. Don't forget to give God his praise
because without him you wouldn't have found me again...
