Life. Growth. Kindness

Life

When it’s messy, dark, and disorienting.

Messy

This feels like yuckness.

Dark

Let me just sleep.

Disorienting

What the hell direction am I going?

You can have my invitation to this lunatic ball. *

Do most people never come upon these struggles?

How come we never discuss this shit?

Just follow these 10 easy steps …

You should …

I know this great …

Life can be messy.

Life can be dark.

Life can be disorienting.

Old vs. Unknown.

Stagnant.

Dammed up.

To question is a spark.

A small flame.

Fan it.

1 minute.

1 hour.

1 day.

You’re not alone.

You’re not frickin’ going crazy.

You’re a beautiful human.

Confusion is real.

Somehow Trust Permeates.

Life’s a Trip!

    Such a great post Dwight- the only way to “it” is through it. Have you heard the quote “What you resist, persist’s.”? Learning how to allow myself to really feel the crap -especially in my body, without judgement, was and still remains one of the hardest exercises I do. My inner critic or Loud Mouth as I call it, can be brutal. Thank you again for this piece. 🤗

    As soon as you quoted “invitation to the lunatic ball” I started singing that song in my head. Life is a trip. As you know I am coming out of close to a couple weeks of mind troubles. Had to ride it out and some days that was not easy, I’m sure you saw that. You and Anne, downtime, reading and gardening have helped me immensely. Love you my dear friend! ❤️❤️❤️
