Good morning. I was wrestling all night with worry. Then I finally woke for about the hundredth time, and I heard this in my mind: Ease through the day. Let it unfold. And then I read some things that suggested this: Good things are coming. You just don't know how yet. Thought I'd pass it on. It really helped me.
I'm a person who has experienced a great deal of serious, past trauma and so, when setbacks occur, especially specific ones, PTSD will kick in, and the reaction can be overwhelming. Many times, I've talked with those who have been in the military, and we've related to each other on this piece, for sure. I understand it now, and I've been aware for a while because of a lot of outside help, but the feelings are still tough to manage sometimes. But I'm doing it! Through it. I know I'm not alone in this. So, I thought I'd share what is helpful to me...maybe it will be helpful to you. Ease through the day. Let it unfold. Slow it down. Love, trust, love. One thing that's good about all of this is that it makes me a compassionate person...and I think I really help some people every single day, which is awesome. I know I did yesterday. And it is also building huge, internal strength every day.
Some people never get in touch with where the fear is coming from. I'm facing it and walking through it, which makes me feel like a warrior.
A little teary this morning. This awareness is a nice Xmas present. And also, I think I will buy myself a stuffed animal.
I hope that you have a beautiful day. No matter what happens, I'm just going to try to just ease through it. :) XO Happy holidays.
Love to you,
C.A. MacConnell
