Sometimes I succeed at taking off my cancer glasses (through which almost everything seen is about cancer). Other times not so much. It does get more "do-able." NOT easier. Just more "do-able" with time. But nothing can take away these spectacles I now have...you too?
It's not about being a downer or negative or pessimistic. It's about the new reality you live in. Not everyone gets this.... Not everyone lives in this space that we do. But it's real and it's not going away. It's just something we balance and manage.
My good friend Lynn calls this the tightrope we walk. Our high wire act. Too much to the left and we're in a rut, depressed and full of fear. Too far to the right and we've lost sight of what keeps us safe and grounded....lost in the clouds of denial.
The middle is where we live our best life. Balanced. Honest. Do-able. Brave.
