And then you realize you put in all that effort to identifying your shit piles ahead of time and no one’s there to give you a cookie for your hard work so you have to do it yourself, even thigh that’s it’s own pile, on top of the work of shoveling other piles.
TBH that’s where I am. After learning and slowly coming to terms with the fact that I was in an abusive relationship for over a decade, I’m now at the point where I want to do things she prevented me from doing.
Like buying a sports car. I can’t really afford it, but I’m going to talk about it until I can.
I’m just happy to try new stuff without that lead vest of anxiety. Go skating, get back into backpacking, drop a glass and just sweep it up without the world ending. You know, simple things.
And sometimes disturbing the shit makes other shit that you haven’t had to deal with in a long time come crashing down on your head.
