Just a Few Thoughts

It is difficult to maintain equilibrium when life whirls around you with such change. 90% good things. Some loss. Some pain. But even the pain, is pain of growth, of moving forward. It's hard to know sometimes, when to let go; hard to know if you are being selfish by holding on; hard to know if you are impeding your own ability to heal, much less someone else's.

I play it by ear, mostly.

I trust my heart to guide me, to show me the path that is true to who I am and who I want to be. I step closely, I pull away. I let a bit of time pass and I step closely again, just to see if it still hurts or if it still pleasures, and I step away again. It's a dance, this process of growing.

I keep dancing. Joyfully.

I keep loving. Joyfully.

I keep moving forward. Joyfully.

I keep being Betty.
