Tiny Little Facebook Rant

Doesn't anyone ever post that they're miserable? You know that 'What are you doing right now?' space? Is there a rule that in the space that follows, 'Laura is', I have to put down something cheerful? Or am I the only one with almost exclusively good-mood friends doing loads of fun things?

  1. Wow. You have described so eloquently EXACTLY how I am feeling at this moment in time! Yes I am miserable and hate that I feel this way when I know I have so much to be thankful for (most especially my husband who has stood by my side but not without injury). I feel as though I am being pressed through a keyhole and am expected- no demanded- of me to live through it. On top of everything, my body has been putting me through the ringer...Just when I think I am finally treading, gracefully no less, with my head above the water, I get pushed under gasping for air.

    All the while knowing that this is part of my learning-about myself(my spirituality) and relationships. It is the toughest learning and pain I have ever gone through and had to face. I'd rather give birth to a dozen more children! I am staring into the eyes of a tiger full well knowing that the tiger is me. Yes, I need to get out of my own way and I am ever so slowly.....But today, this moment, I'd like to wallow in my misery and be OK with that.
    Whew that felt pretty dang good to vomit that up!
    Love you Laura-Noreen

  2. Oh, Noreen - good to hear from you. So sorry that facing the tiger is so grueling. Wallow away! And I hope you can appreciate the snarling and slashing of the fierce tiger that you are. Love, Laura
