I thought perhaps I had fallen off the wall and broken into pieces kinda sorta Humpty Dumpty style. Actually I feel more like I am skimming the surface like a stone skipping across a bed of water that is still on the surface, spread out like a sheet, but underneath, the current rages.
I feel like that rock. I am not sure who or what tossed me from the waters edge, all I see is crowd of people and stacks of responsibilities that all relate to me. Maybe I tossed myself. I am certain it was not to find an escape or I would never have chosen this route.
Maybe it is better to be like a skipping stone than to be holding on to a rope that is about to break. Maybe I have more chance of surviving this way.
I don't feel anything. Kinda sorta numb fashion. I feel on overload. I had reached a point where I felt the worse was over. Blue skies were on the horizon, within reach. Then a bomb shell, at least it felt that way to me. Seems each time I get to a point where I feel all will be well and the worse is behind me, I wake to find there is more to overcome. It leaves me feeling as though I can't trust that all ever will be well and that I will have to spend the rest of my life in survivor mode rather than actually living.
I think that my brain and heart have decided to separate me from the world I live in. Do you suppose they often have conferences over my well being? If so, I wonder if coffee and donuts are served which would explain why from time to time, I crave a glazed, over-filled jelly donut.
Perhaps I was shielded too much as a child, not having opportunity to experience real life. At this point in the game of life, I don't suppose it matters.
In conclusion to this blog post:
This morning I was viewing images from my online verizon album. When I clicked on one to send to my daughter, a window came up that said, "Unfortunately your time has expired, you will have to log in again." That pretty much, kinda sorta, sums up how I feel. Now, to figure out how to log in again...
The long drives, stuffed in the back seat of our Pink Rambler, in between two sisters is where I learned the art of throwing daggers with my eyes and how many songs can be sung with words like 'this' and 'that', causing the tongue to shoot in the direction of whichever sister you were mad at the time with. All the while, having an excuse in the lyrics of the song. All that, and plethora more...
