Yesterday, during our walk at the park, I told Penny about the message that B. sent me the night before. I expressed to her my anger, my frustration, my feelings of being violated (again!), and she expressed how shocked and proud she was that I actually ignoreed him and was able to block him.
As the 4 of us (Me, my dog, her, and her unborn baby) continued our trek along the lake, she said in amazement... "He saved your life, you know. Mr. Z. saved your life. No matter how much we wanted to help you, and how many humans tried to save you from that relationship, we couldn't. It took him. It took this little doggy, it took Mr. Z. to save you."
Here's Mr. Z enjoying our trip to the park. Along him is his trendy bag that contains his water, snack, toys, and whatever else he might need for one of our adventures.
I have found myself in unhealthy relationships with others and, in turn, myself. This blog details my journey to find self-compassion: to reflect on my own role in unhealthy relationships and to focus on me. This is my attempt to look inward to become more self-aware. If my writings are relate-able to anyone, it is my hope that I can offer a sense of normalcy about wanting to feel loved and connected without losing your sense of self along the way...
