Returning to October because there will never be another one like it and a friend told me to think of time as cyclical rather than linear. That weāre not going backwards just seeing some of the same things again but differently because we change each go round. Isnāt that beautiful? š±
M U M M Y is still my favorite name and the thing I miss the most is not being able to hear my favorite voice respond whenever I call it.
10 things Iāve learned in the 10 years youāve been gone:
1. After the passing of an important family member people either grow closer to each other or relationships fall apart. Itās a simple truth that took me too long to accept.
2. Grief can not be outrun or something you overcome, you just grow around it
3. Donāt judge yourself using the morals of the person who passed away because it forces you to choose between honoring their wishes and living your life as authentically as possible
4. Take on new challenges & approach novel experiences with the wonder & curiosity of a child to avoid becoming stuck in the past
5. Get a therapist AND have a good friend you can talk to about any and everything
6. Share anything useful you learned in therapy with your loved ones and allow the healing to make you a better community member. Do not let the necessary self obsession lead you too far into a boundaried isolation
7. There are way more good & decent people in the world than shit ones. If you canāt find one, be one
8. If you put love into everything you do itās harder for resentment to fester when someone is not helping out. Itāll still get done
9. Release the need to tell anyone your side of a story or correct a wrong opinion of you. Your silence on certain matters is just Gods grace being shared and everyone that needs to know the details already does
10. It really is important to take the meat out of the freezer the night before!
