As Smelly as the Next Person

Brushing my teeth this morning, I had a self-realisation moment. Not a NEW self-realisation moment but rather a re-cap. Humans are smelly. We portray our best self to the world, but in reality we are as fallible*, as weak and as preposterous as the next person.

Having real friends help. They stand by us and do not suffer any behavioural nonsense. We will be told upfront (in exact terms) what is wrong with us, and if we're smart, we will take necessary actions to improve after feedback is received.

Having a husband and supporter definitely helps too. I will proceed with D-day but I hope we can plan and refocus our future together. My heart is totally broken, but I need some time to heal. When it heals it will beat so much stronger. 

* I am familiar with the word 'infallible', but it had to be used like this "Humans are not infallible" > which sounded too nerdy/ literary. Hence I have chosen to use fallible instead, and found that it is a proper entry in the dictionary (but of course!).
