The quiet light. At night it's never quiet where I live; an apartment beneath another apartment that is filled with about 67 people always wearing tap shoes in the wee hours. But in the morning? Aah... they sleep in :)

Avoiding self-pity Since my lst time posting here, I've been diagnosed with several additional disorders and knowing that, every day, sometimes finds me wanting to succumb to the pity-bus. Sometimes I find myself on that bus with no idea how I got there! It is the biggest frustration.
I guess that means I've learned more about myself in the past year, though, and that as frustrating as my health may be, that's not the hardest thing about being me. Aah, I love the smell of revelation in the morning! :)

one year ago
today
watching my life fall apart
thinking it would never be whole again
(if it ever was)
scared for a future
i had no grip on
i had no hope for
i had no idea of
i had no idea
one more year of fighting against the dark
would bring me
to this incredible,
beautiful
lightness of being.

Warm! Summer-y! Spring-like! Anything except this cold, windy, bitter chill! However, I'd take the present weather if it meant that friday would be nice and warm - I'm moving that day :)

I suppose it was learning how to use my new camera. My boyfriend bought me a very nice digital camera for yule, and I've been annoying - and bringing smiles to- lots of people.
Over the course of the past year, however, I learned the hardest and most important thing ever, and that was how to love myself.

About an hour ago, I met with my caseworker for the OVR; that's the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation. They help the disabled get back to work, however necessary. My breath was taken away when she explained that they will not only pay for me to take some college courses in small business, but help me start that small business both via guidance and financials.
So my brain said: Let me get this straight. You'll pay for me to go to school to learn how to run a business AND help pay some of the startup costs? And then my brain said HOLD BREATH!! This is AWESOME!
This translates to my biggest, longest dream actually coming true. I'm going to open my own used bookstore.

I want a stress-less December.
This encompasses all of my family drama, lost friendships I need to let go of, courage to seek the help I need, hope that my art will sell (it's all on display in Philly this month!), faith that they WILL sell and I WILL be able to afford to go to a doctor as a result, and strength to make it rhough to the new year with more confidence and self-awareness than ever before.
