Happy Thursday Lovecats!
I hope you’re having a lovely week! I am still in shock that it is December… seriously, how is it the end of 2024 already!??! I honestly cannot wrap my head around it.
I pulled my Christmas tree out the other day and set it up, for the 3rd year ALONE, which if I think about it for too long, makes me sad… but it’s not actually sad, it’s mostly the idea of being alone - AGAIN - even though this year I really am alone because for the last two years, even though I lived alone, I still thought I was in a relationship. This year is different. I feel free, but again, the idea and story around being alone for the holidays tends to make me sad. But I am undoubtedly LESS SAD now than I have been for most of this year! So that’s progress I think! I also finally feel excited about the uncertainty of my future instead of afraid of it, which also feels like progress. This means that I’ve started enough “new” things that have me feeling like a new person, a future version of myself, living a new life, that I am excited about AND even more excited now to see where and what all these things I’ve started might blossom into… and then excited for the other new things that will come from it and the life that will ensue after that. SO, when I think about it from that perspective, it all feels pretty great actually.
I talked about it a little bit in my more recent YouTube, if you are interested in watching it 😊
See you on Sunday!
