Waiting for my real life to begin... thoughts on getting older
This song is a beautiful haunting reminder to let go of the past and your expectations about what your future was supposed to be, and instead to try and embrace the life that you have. I confess that I have spent the last year kind of silently wallowing in my regrets and sadness about how my life has turned out so far.... The divorce/separation with my husband is a tough pill to swallow. The relationship has broken down and likely can't be repaired... so i am trying to move on with my life without the daily ways I usually torture myself about the regrets of the past.
Sorry you're going through a rough patch right now - have you considered fictionalizing your experiences as a way of distancing them from yourself? You write well, I don't see why you shouldn't try to tell a story as opposed to journaling about your experiences. Somehow the narrative distance gives you perspective. Well, just a suggestion :) You might look at @ginnyannette to get an idea of what I'm talking about.
Thanks -- will check that out for sure.
I'm honored that I came to mind. Thanks for the recommendation.
You're welcome, Ginny
