Trust...Day 1


Trust.

The word I chose to be my focus this year.  

The word alone invokes a sense of *ugh* within me.  I don’t want to.  I don’t want to deal.  I don’t care.  I see my propensity for denial and procrastination is still alive and kicking.  *smirk*

Trust means many things – just google it and see the results.  I chose the definition “confidence” and when I apply that meaning, it transforms the word into something I am more comfortable exploring.

I went to bed last night, just after the new year passed, feeling very alone.  Not in a sad way, more in a resigned way.  I was also very hungry and very tired.  To me these feelings are indicators that I need some self-nurturance.  I was inclined to turn to victim mentality and ruminate on why my life was so crappy, but I fought it off (insert Higher Power) until I could go to sleep confident I was going to be just fine. 

I slept 12 hours.

When I woke up I had fresh coffee, bacon and laughter waiting for me. 

Trust works.

Have a Blessed and Happy New Year!
