It's Ok...
...to have a pissy day, now and again.
I'm showing up for the day.
Might not be showing up well, but I'm showing up authentically.
Yesterday was a disappointment. I don't know how to say it other than sometimes it feels like I'm working my butt off (I wish) for nothing. Either technology seems against me (algorithms, unsent communication, things going wrong) or my expectations are too high or it seems like I'm doing all for nothing because no one sees it/reads it anyway.. For whatever reason, I was left feeling discouraged, apathetic, and turtle-ish. It was a fun little pity party of one.
And you know what? It happens. No one is perfect or has all the answers or has everything laid out exactly as planned. NO ONE. Not me, not you, not royalty. No One.
In the past, I would have just picked up my toys and gone home. But there's a higher purpose for what I'm trying to do here. Who knows who I can help just by sharing my stories and letting others know that they aren't alone (if FB allows anyone to see it).
So, just as I would give Grace to another person, it's important to give it to myself and let "Little Me" know that it's ok to not be ok all the time and that "Big Me" is here to be with her through it.
We'll get through, she and I. Tomorrow is another day, Scarlet.
Tomorrow is another day.
