I have been so lucky as a child and adult not to be in that daunting place of no stability etc.....but I have never felt rooted anywhere and expected that I would as I got older....but now think perhaps I never will. I don't feel particularly connected to our home as a family now, I don't feel a particular pull anywhere especially either despite knowing we won't stay here for very long.....perhaps that is what comes with the privilege of not having that threatened at any time. I don't know. Or maybe it is my multi-generational wanderlust ...although I don't feel the need to travel (good job as son can't 😄), but I also don't feel a need to stay...hmmm....hope you had a good day and good ventures Suzanne x
I can relate to trying to create the stability, security, roots and emotional safety for my children that I just didn't have. I used to panic over the fact that my youngest didn't have any space of his own, as our house was too small. Pleased you've had such a lovely time with J and now get to spend an extra night with him. Hope your events go well, I'm sure they will xxx
Very interesting your metaphorical wardrobe and how you connected that with stability .
My metaphorical wardrobe was the opposite as I cleared my wardrobe out over a few weeks with women's aid support, the things I found in there like the metal holder our marriage certificate was in and our wedding photos, it symbolised me moving on and getting rid of a very narcissistic ex. Still metaphorically cleaning him out of my life and healing .
Decision today was to work on my gifted fear based life..... This is a biggy for me I approached my day and the things I do with love not fear 💟 I can tell you I felt sooooo much calmer , had my moments , in pain with fibromyalgia struggled to walk but about 80% of the day I was leading with love .
I'm going to make it my goal / decision every morning to approach my day with love , I have this vision in my head which comes from doing parades at brownies, yes with the brown bobble hat and dress that was way too short because I was very tall for my age . The updated version is me carrying a flag with a huge love heart 💓 on it throughout the day, and having moments of Hong Kong fooey( think it was called that ,cartoon from childhood, anybody correct if I have it spelt wrong) and kicking , karate chopping that gifted fear into the trash can 🗑️🥋
Good luck with the calf burner walk Suzanne and enjoy your time with Jack xxx
