Its fascinating that the more we understand about the mind, the more we learn that we don't understand it. I say this because as i go through this hopefully brief section of my life, I am gaining an ever growing appreciation for a healthy life style and a healthy mind. The past week or so dealing with one of life's many curve balls, has really brought a lot of issues in my own life to light. I thought what i went through last year in June with one of my best friends was one of the hardest things to deal with and understand, but i guess that experience was just preparing me for this past week. And although i cannot go into detail for my family's privacy, i think i have a lot of lessons to learn that i don't need to be so cryptic about.
1). Relationships are important and no matter what you are going through in life, the relationships that have real value are the ones that can withstand anything.
2) It's important to be honest with yourself and others. When you think you need to be secretive about something you should re-evaluate what you are really doing.
3). The stress you have in your life is normal, but understanding the problem that stressed you out AS WELL AS the stress you have really are two problems that need to be delt with. The ladder being the most important.
4) Family comes first, there will be no other people as important as family.
A very small handful of people in my life know about the 'curve ball' that my family is dealing with right now. But it's a little gift to feel the happiness remembering that the people that do know are indispensable in my life. And in my family's life.
And that it's important to take care of yourself above all else.
** this post my have not made much sense, i am very tired and exhausted writing it.... but felt it was worth posting.
