It was a 6 hour one way drive...longest I had taken since before I was married...and I was driving.
My music? Soundtrack from the movie Elizabethtown. So with my girls, good music and my thoughts that I had been ignoring we got on the road.
In those 6 hours I allowed myself to hear my thoughts, really hear them. The thoughts that I never wanted to admit I had. I listened to myself finally and by the time I pulled into the driveway I knew...hadn't fully admitted to myself, but knew.
I spent days enjoying great company, watching my girls smile, realizing that I was also smiling...by the time we left I was there. Wounds that I thought would never heal, are. Happiness that I never thought I would feel again, I do. My girls notice. Maddi said that she missed my smiles and Alli has told me over and over again that she's glad that I'm back, and that I'm happy.
People keep asking me if I've met someone, and I have.
I've met me again.
Wings! Woot~!
