Escape

Every since we have had to put the dog down , I have been a wreck. I hate being a wreck and like someone else said about their dog it was a part of my soul. It felt like a piece of my soul got ripped out. I have felt so raw and disconnected until I finally escaped into a mini-vacation to Toronto. It is a little hard to cry walking down a busy street or even be centered in that place with millions of people around you. It has been nice to escape my mood and my life. I have been going to art galleries and eating as much as I can. I have also been walking a ton. You have to walk here and it is great. One of the reasons to be here is to walk without all the blackflys biting and what not. It also allows me to be me in the city. I just get to be and be totally autonomous. I didn't realize how much I have missed the city. As, much as I love it here I will be happy to get back tomorrow afternoon also to my other wonderful dogs and cat. One can only escape so much before you have to deal with life again. But sometimes an escape is a great way to get a handle on things before a person totally comes to pieces. I was slowly unraveling and really need to get a grip .

    that is a great perspective on things. and very true. you're gonna be fine.

    you do know what *FINE* means in acronym terms , right?
    = f'd up, insecure, neurotic, and emotional.

    so actually i do try to avoid using that word . :))

    you'll be alright-- watch and see.
    life's too short to focus on the bad stuff. took me over 40 years to learn that-- i think i'm finally 'gettin it'

    hugs friend-
