Sitting with our feelings

Feelings---

sometimes they aren't good, they aren't bad... they just are... and they are real... and they have to be acknowledged and lived...

and we have to sit with them...

I am still a work in progress....

and I am still ok with that

The paths I have taken are my own

and just part of my tapestry of self

and I am sure I will continue to take the paths less travelled.

I just seem incapable of anything else.

Acceptance-- hm.....

I hate sitting with them. But I'm sure it's something I want to learn to do. (sorta) I just discovered the other day the "it's okay to be where I am" thought/truth. Quite effective, that thought. Was amazing how effective and helpful that thought was in the situation I was in. It's so funny how we can feel so threatened or unsafe or insecure when we actually are not threatened really at all. Weird.
That helped.

That's a really nice example of what was in my head, thanks.
