I am not afraid of:
I have been alone in our house for over 4 months now. I guess not really alone. We have a dog and 3 cats. I have faced all that has come my way to keep things maintained and prepared for the winter. I have done things I did not think I could do alone. Then I think about Jackie - she is being cared for but she too must feel alone. SHe has not been home for 4 months. SHe cannot talk to anyone - even me - about her feelings. I wonder if she is there feeling like I do right now.
Since July 14, 2008 I am no longer afraid of:
the dark
being alone
and monsters under my bed
going to the dentist
or doctor
or dying of cancer
asking for help
accepting help
and asking again
being perfect at work
being perfect with my family
being perfect with myself (almost)
I am not afraid of my past catching up
or leaving me behind
or me leaving it behind
I am not afraid of thunder
the howling winds
or snow
I am afraid of lighting
it struck
and it struck hard...........
