[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 324513, member: 393"] [SIZE=3]Steeley, my dear.....life after a traumatic unexpected death combined with the day in/day out parenting of a difficult child & making a life change in the big move you've done recently....well, let's just say that you can lost in all these life events. You lose "you" in all the things, illnesses, etc, etc, etc. I've spent this year grieving over husband, watching my difficult children spiral out of control while trying to remodel my home to make it functional for me. Add in all the mtgs, etc I too have lost myself. I'm turning to a more spiritual way of life. I'm looking deep into my life & see what it's okay to let go of what I want to keep & everything in between. I'm turning to the most peaceful things/most therapeutic things I can do. Painting & piano (especially in winter), taking care of my little backyard bird sanctuary - making sure my birds are fed & well. I've gotten out the books that so enlightened me as I was growing up - Gibran's The Prophet, A Treasury of Poetry - even started reading The New Yorker again. Little things make a big difference. A very big difference. Take care lady. [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
