Title: Opening Up Again Post by: myself on February 09, 2014, 05:22:42 PM I was sitting in tears with the sun shining on my face. Letting go of the past. I was shut down in the r/s. NC closed the door to her, and who I was with her. I've been feeling like a turtle, withdrawn into a shell for safety. With good reason. I realized today I am not being myself with so many walls up. I see I was protecting myself from myself. I'm moving forward within these boundaries, and am opening up again.

I feel like a spring flower beginning to bloom. I'm still in the bud stage, but at least I'm growing! As long as we are green, we can grow. much love, L Title: Re: Opening Up Again Post by: Ceide on February 09, 2014, 08:12:38 PM You will be an even better you!
This journey takes such courage and strength. I am grateful for everyone on here, helping me to open up again, too.

I have been NC for a little bit and was curious what you mean by this? Thanks, Arn |
