A Little Bit Like Me
I have been very unlike myself over the past two months, to the point where I have wondered if the “old me” would ever come back. My mom told me that parts of “old me” would come back, but that I may not ever be exactly the same and that was okay. Well last night a little bit of the “old me” came back. I love autumn and decorate my house both inside and out for the season. My friends and family have been encouraging me to decorate this year, but honestly I haven’t much felt like it. Well, yesterday after work something came over me. I stopped and bought pumpkins, gourds, and a mum and decorated the front stoop, just as I always have. I even got out a few of my decorations and put those out too. I didn’t go all-out and decorate inside the house, but what I did outside felt good. I actually felt a little bit like me.

Good for you! Might be a simple symbol for your "husband" to also realize that he hasn't completely broken you!
ReplyDeleteI can relate to your lack of getting into the season or holiday spirit! I used to be the biggest fanatic when it came to decorating for Christmas. You will find as time goes by that you have changed in many ways but don't let those feeling of change keep you from doing what deep down inside you truly love. The fact is that they will help bring back some of the person you used to be and help recreate who you will become. The truth is that you will never totally return to the person you used to be but you can take this oppurtunity to become whoever you want to be. Just be careful but not to careful...its ok to love again but take your time and be sure!
ReplyDeleteyeah for fellow fall lover! me too and it is a must that you move on, in many ways, even just little things like decorating your house. it is your norm so do it and prove to HIM that you are still alive on the inside and out!
