I’ve been writing more poems, because I’m starting to take my emotions seriously. I try to honor and experience my feelings, instead of acting like I don’t deserve to go through them.

This week was rough, but I’ll be OK. Some situations are simply unavoidable. I’m experiencing all these new emotions and it’s weird. It feels nice, but it’s also uncomfortable. It’s like moving into a bigger and better home. You know it’s an upgrade and your grateful, but it’s still new and disorienting. These emotions aren’t even bad, most of them are positive signs that I’m growing as a person. Maybe my discomfort with them is similar to what people call growing pains. I’m grateful for these changes in my life. I don’t want them to go away anytime soon. ♦
