I won't be on here much anymore due to the feed and lack of interaction, but want to let the people who care about me know, I'm doing pretty good 🖤
I have walked into an opportunity that will sustain me and make moving, when it's time, seamless.
I get to use my trauma power for good and I get to do something that makes a difference. Without getting too specific, it's elder care and I am working with the most difficult people, but it's rewarding. After my experience with my mom/dementia and all the death I've witnessed, I have found a way to help. I have found a place for my strength and caring. And darkness.
When people dump their parents because they're too old and difficult, I can provide some comfort. I have the patience, I have the thick skin and I have the love.
It's sad how Americans treat their elders...
My light only shines in darkness it seems. A darkness most people don't want to face. Yet this is where I find warmth and meaning.
It has improved a lot for me. Not just financially, but on a soul level. I don't have to pretend I'm cheerful, extroverted, energetic and superficial anymore. I can be myself. Calm and chill. And it works. I can soothe. I can deflect the verbal abuse and transmute it into peace.
I'm so happy. It feels like my heart is thawing. I have found my way and I see the path ahead of me.
I needed this.
I love you guys and I will check in. But I think there's too much hate everywhere right now. Too much control over the content we see. I'm done with the performative conflict. Done being left out of what I care about.
There are some deeply amazing people here, I have enjoyed following your journeys. I will be stopping by, curious and caring while away 🖤 please know, you are thought of, and well wishes are made daily in your honor.
