Glad to see you’re doing well, would have loved to talk to you but not the time or place. I’ll respect your wishes, and wait for you to ready to talk if you ever are. I really do still miss you, and hope things with your family and health are going better. I’m still confused and kinda struggling to find my way after everything, but I really do wish nothing but good things for you. I really hope you haven’t lost sight of the beautiful soul you tried so hard to hide, and realize that you do deserve to be loved and cared about. I still think you’re absolutely gorgeous, and I will always be here if you want or need to reach out.
— Henry Miller, A Literate Passion: Letters of Anaïs Nin & Henry Miller, 1932-1953
We all need this sometimes
Sorry my blogs a mess
So am I
When people are ready they change. They never do it before then, and sometimes they die before they get around to it. You can’t make them change if they don’t want to, just like when they do want to, you can’t stop them.
Andy Warhol
This could not be more true. Once you’re left with only doubt and questions, at some point even the worst thoughts seem plausible as you fall victim to the echoing nightmares of your own insecurities and the memory of everything they bragged about doing to their ex’s or threatened you with “just to play around”. You still care and try to resist, but in the silence, everything you are afraid of finds a hold and starts slowly clawing its way past the things you’ve told yourself to quiet those nightmares.
My goal each and every single day
First on the agenda, order the roofing supplies and paint for the exterior. Already have the new flooring, now just to figure out what colors I want to paint the interior and exterior walls and trim. It’s kinda weird making all the decisions and not having to answer to anyone, but I can’t wait to see the end results.
