Finding Myself

Who I am is not attached to my partner/ spouse

My job or achievements

My children

or My worldly possessions

I am not defined by my weaknesses

or failures  

or idiosyncrasies

I am weak at times

Sometimes I bounce back

Immediately

or Eventually

Me and my introversion

Me and my need to belong

Me and my need to be acknowledged

What of it?

What do I want?

What am I after?

Have I achieved enough?

or Should I have aimed higher?

How do I achieve the happiness I seek?

Why does my heart ache in numbing pain?

Will I be okay?

I would like to (be)

Am I easy to love?

Or too complicated for compromise?

Is this temporary

or will this drag on?

Is the answer in Gratitude?

Yes. most likely

Is this life worth living?

Yes and Yes, most definitely

So, Chin Up Girl

You still have a long way to go

A Journey that you must travel

And I promise that you will be alright

You know you will be
