In my Morning Pages today, the same theme. I’m starting over. Again. A new day, a fresh start, and despite a lifetime of failures and giving in to temptation, I’m hopeful. Again.

It was a teachable moment, gracefully fulfilled when Ashley and Wynonna Judd uttered these words to the public last year, announcing the sad, untimely death of their mother, the beloved country music icon.
Joe Guay - Dispatches From the Guay Life!!Published about a month ago in PsycheHow to care for oneself while grieving
How to care for oneself while grieving Grief in its entirety strikes while you least expect it. The atrocity of sadness lies in the false notion of being alone and having it all together all the time.

Oftentimes people subject their negativity to a mere passage of time, but often there is an underlying cause that needs to be addressed and healed to become in a state of awareness of their emotions and innate being. It is important to bring light to the need to embrace one’s emotions and not shame ourselves with guilt when we don't feel happy or in rhythm with our souls. Often we lose the sense of self when surrounded by grief.

Is this unhappiness perhaps part and parcel of the human condition, and are artists just the more obvious or poetic martyrs?

I have this recurring nightmare, and it’s really boring. Don’t get me wrong, it’s terrifying, it just happens so often that I’m sick of it. Enduring the stress can feel more exhausting than staying up all night. Whether purposefully or not, I often do that instead.

ThWhat is ableism, and why is it harmful? The disabled community is the world's largest minority. It's also the only minority that anyone could become part of at any time. Many non-disabled people take their health for granted. When you're used to living without worry, it's often easy to ignore the thought of how common disability actually is. According to the World Health Organization, nearly one and a half billion people worldwide live with some type of disability, and it isn't always visible.

I want to start with something that is hopefully obvious... Eating disorders should NOT be glamorized. Some of the stuff in here is well known but other stuff isn't as obvious unless you deal with or have dealt with them in the past.

Weeping Angel's blue
~ I couldn't manipulate the fact that people could look at me, talk to me then have an opinion based off a 30 minute conversation. It could either be "I like you a lot, let's talk more"... or.... "I don't like you, let's stop talking." And even though it could sound so confrontational to some people, they would still have this look of displeasure.
