finally had a moment to read this one and it’s so spot on. i would like to say that i also think “it would be so nice to not have to be drop-kicked by my thoughts so profoundly”.

when i look at my life and the experiences i’ve had and also the ones i am having - i’m happy. like, even if it’s not in every moment (and i know that i won’t be), that’s okay - bc overall it’s downright damn good.

Everything you write resonates with me sweet Dani, this maybe even more than most ❤️ I had checked all the boxes (except kids, which was by choice) and then it all got blown up when I got sober and divorced. Four years later and my life looks nothing like most of my friends, and there’s no spouse/partner/boyfriend/girlfriend on the horizon. Some days I’m lonely and a bit sad about it, but many days lately I realize that I’m actually… really happy. I love deciding exactly how I want to spend my time, dreaming and thinking about the future without having to consult someone else. Here’s to moving forward and building our own lives together 💜🦋
