Reflecting & Looking Ahead

Last night I pulled out my DBT work and went to work. Last week I reached out to my late aunt's partner about meeting up for the first time in years and anxiety set in as I looked ahead to the reintroduction. I decided to utilize some DBT skills in order to cope ahead as well as address some unresolved issues regarding my aunt.

Thing was, it was pretty tough trying to work through things that I didn't remember... so the hubs recommended that I look at the blog. Of course, we found a treasure trove of resources just by searching one word. I was amazed. Reflecting brought back some memories and also reminded me that it's something of a blessing to forget some things.

I was also a little wistful. I used to write so much! And I had a community here. Not sure what happened as far as fading away but I'm considering fading back in. I started another blog (very recently) and now I'm conflicted about reviving this one. My sister made some comment about knowing about a blog and it scared me, but that was years ago now.

I don't know right now. That's okay.

But it feels good to let these fingers fly...

Be well. :o)
