If all progress takes place outside my comfort zone and
The heart of wisdom is tolerance.
If I am the only one that can give myself peace
And I am the one floundering in the middle
Gasping for air
Having a near death fish experience
Over and over again
Then
The secret of true happiness is letting every situation
Be what it is,
Instead of what I think it should be
And this secret is inside the circus
Inside of me.
Calm down. Or you’ll burn out. Like a flame that flickers, then blazes into light, puts up a fight, tries to swallow all the darkness in the world whole in one piece in a few seconds, before it flickers once more and then slowly dies. Calm down. Or you’ll burn out.
I’m feeling very overwhelmed. Very lonely. I’m not sure why. But once again I spent the whole day working, then trying to relax but failing to do so. I am exhausted now. Just falling into bed. Quickly trying to figure out my mind just before I drift off into a desperate and exhausted sleep.
The truth is every reality you perceive is your reality.
I've got borderline personality disorder. I'm divorced. I'm in my early thirties. I'm really confused.
I'm in a relationship. I'm an entrepreneur. I'm honest. I like to think I'm a good person. I'm definitely an empathic person. I'm a caring person. I try to make the world a better place.
I experience extreme highs and extreme lows. I have difficulty processing emotions. I have difficulty maintaining relationships. I've got an extreme fear of abandonment. I'm still learning how to be a better me.
I have low self-esteem. You'll have to look very far to find a more loving person than me. I love deeply and fiercely.
I love dogs. I love dancing, writing, poetry. Occasionally my posts include poetry. Most of the time it's just me talking to you.
It helps me process things. It helps me remember things. It helps me create a sort of constant reminder of who I am.
I'm grateful to those of you who read my posts and leave a helpful comment. I try to include helpful links to resources and stuff, when I can.
This platform means the world to me. I've met some really wise, amazing and supportive people. Thank you for giving me a space where I can literally just be me - no holds barred.
