Fully Present NOT

Okay I had to laugh at today’s topic:

 
December 12 – Body Integration This year, when did you feel the most integrated with your body? Did you have a moment where there wasn’t mind and body, but simply a cohesive YOU, alive and present? (Author: Patrick Reynolds)

If there’s one thing I haven’t felt this year is wholy present and alive. A piece of my heart is missing and there are days it feels absolutely shattered. My heart is mending as time goes on, but there are have been a lot of firsts for me this year. A trip to Iowa without Mom waiting for me when I got there. Mother’s Day without Mom. My birthday without Mom. Thanksgiving without Mom. Mom’s birthday – yesterday as a matter of fact – without talking to Mom. I still have the firsts of Christmas and New Years. And then there’s the first anniversary of her death.

This year, a cohesive Me, alive and present just hasn’t existed.

  1. I’m so sorry for your loss. I wish there was more to say but wanted you to know that someone is listening and understanding.
