Engulfed

I am off the peak. The last couple of days have not been particularly good. I have been consumed with anxiety and worry. I have started several posts and never finished them.

There are times when I wish my life was even simpler than it is right now. I don't live a highly complicated existence. I just need to focus on those things I can control and let go of worry. But I find myself unable to.

  1. I know what you mean, Ingrid. I feel like I am in limbo at the moment. I almost wish I was a child again so my parents could tell me what to do. I feel directionless and apathetic. Hopefully, I'll snap out of it soon. Hang in there!

  2. Funny you should say that. I wrote this line and did not include it in the final post: I am tired of being a grownup.

    I am supposed to lead the way for my children. Who will lead the way for me?

    Easier said than done...I know

  4. I get it. Some days I just want to run away and fend for myself, not everyone else in my life. I hope you find peace soon.

  5. Seems like we've all been there...that "Stop the ride, I wanna get off" feeling.

    If you focus on the things you can control, everything else will take care of itself. Something will happen, and then you just take care of the things you can control.

    It's that simple and that difficult. Otherwise, you'll just spend way too much time regretting the choices you've made or worrying about a future that isn't quite here yet.
