I was talking with a friend yesterday who is going through the grief process of a breakup. She asked me what I am doing it to make it through my own breakup. So i've really started thinking about how i'm doing this. How i'm coping in healthy ways. Well, there are lots of things. First, there are the new shoes and the good meds. (kidding. sort of). But things like painting, hot yoga, and blogging about my life are helping. Staying busy at work (or blogging at work as the case may or may not be :)) Getting up early and playing with the pup, spending time in God's word. And sure, there's the occassional (or daily) dose of The Real Housewives, but i needed to slip a vice in there somewhere.
But i'm doing it. I'm making it. And on the days when i feel like i'm not making it...on the days where i wonder if i'll be alone forever...i do my best to fake it in hopes of soon making it. I go through the motions. I keep going. It's like a dance. I haven't mastered the dance, nor will i ever. But i'm trying. That's all we can hope for--the willingness to keep trying.
