rose bud thorn
– a win to celebrate – to being surrounded by people in a work environment who want to love and embrace my authentic self
bud – well obviously the big changes of landscape, environment, climate, culture, people, work, life, etc etc
thorn – an obstacle is to not give a fuck I guess that many of my friends are falling away, literally dropping like flies – ages and stages
different paths – might reconnect, might not – that’s all okay, they say – but it’s still hard, there is definitely some heartbreak there – if I let it show, beneath the judgement, anger, resentment, shame, self-punishment… you know all that good stuff we learn about in therapy and in the books.
To move away – to tear the heart strings –
