I might lose you here. But who are you anyways? I want ME to be OK. Like actually. Not like that fake it to you make it poster in therapy. You know next to the one of a cat dangling on a branch saying, “hang in there”, ironically. I want to be happy like physically, mentally and, emotionally congruently. Not stuck In the same reoccurring woe is me poopy loop, of why them and not me boohoos. Feels like healing is always two steps forward, just to get kicked back three steps, mentally. I’m tired of my stinking thinking, 50 outta 50. I just wish when I slept that it was actual rest, instead of some torture dungeon Inside my head. Viciously beating my spirit through my chest. All these thoughts I bred, while trying to release the, “ I don’t need ”, with the claw machine I built inside me, using my tools from therapy. Who am I and why am I not 100% OK. Because I want to be OK. I want to be genuinely happy. I want to see what you see. I never in my life understood the line , I am happy to be me. Because I didn’t and still don’t have anything but ego and a personality. that was tailored and fitted to me. All because that’s what they told me. and what was I to compare it to, if that was the only me I ever knew. It’s strange, that I am everything I think I am because, I listened to the description of the character I fit into for them. I just want to be OK. not for your role, but for my sanity’s sake. But who am I, If I am not me? And what does OK actually mean if OK is based off of someone else’s self-evaluation. but they too don’t know themselves. Ohh, that’s confusing. How would I ever know if I am happy as myself within myself if I have never met anyone who has ever been themselves? I just want to be me. I just want to be happy, and the most genuine version, this body mind and soul can be.

    This feels to me like a silent meditative sense of longing mixed with some healthy deep critical analysis of certain ideas. And even though we live our lives in different contexts, I’m definitely there with you in that regard.

    Some days I feel this sense of just “getting it” where I’m totally happy being “myself,” (Whatever that actually means philosophically, who knows?) and l feel moments of rebirth. And then I have a moment like this morning, where I’m back into sulking mode where I have a genuine reason to feel that way. But yet, it doesn’t help to move backwards. And It is what it is. Acceptance being the healing antidote that I don’t want to take in. I’m sure you can relate there probably! Lol!

      Yes I definitely can relate!

      This was one of those pieces where I knew what I wanted to say , but what came out was scattered and a little all over. I just know the main thing I needed myself to read and get out was that I want to be OK, like alll of me (whoever thay may be).

      But I have noticed that the closer to myself I get the more steps backwards I seem to face ahead but its all part of this process of finding new things about myself. And sharing my experience (as cluster bleeped as it is) with the world. Thank you for always reading and giving me your feedback in relation to your own life and experiences 🙏🏼 You always have the best comments!! I hope your day and weekend are wonderful 😊

        Oh yeah! That makes complete sense! I’m glad that you’re so kind and giving grace to yourself through the process. You totally got this! But even if you kept failing and taking all those steps backwards, EVEN without a step forward, it still doesn’t mean that you wouldn’t deserve to be loved and seen for who you are. That’s what truly matters. Success or failure in any endeavor means nothing without being acknowledged for your unique existence. I believe in you! Keep going! 🙏🏻 I appreciate you being so sweet too! I hope that your day continues to hopefully be wonderful! And that your weekend is the best ever yet! 😊
