Reflections on another year gone by...
I have spent the past few months trying to steady myself out (ok, thats a lie, I spent it wallowing in self pity and despair). In all sense of reckoning, this year has sucked. And I truly had a moment of .. pause.. I guess is the best term. I paused. You ever walk, and for whatever reason your leg doesn't respond like it should, and you miss a step. Thats what I had happen. It was and is a painful, raw feeling.
But I suppose like most forms of grieving, mine is following the standard five steps, etc. I was certainly in denial for a while. And then anger took root, and I was angry. Thought that was short lived. The depression certainly took me to new levels of.. stupidity. I think somewhere around the denial and anger was a bit of bargaining. I'm not going to pretend I've accepted it, but I've realized I need to move on with my life. And I suppose one day I'll accept what has happened to my life.
Maybe.
