comfort zone where are you?

I have outgrown my comfort zones…I need new ones.

What used to work years ago is a fleeting memory today.  I can’t seem to find “comfort” in the places I used to go to get away from everyday stresses.

I used to be able to “distract” myself in many ways.  Movies, tv shows, reading, playing a game, even walking was a great distraction for me.  Now I can’t seem to get comfortable with any of these.  The feelings still creep in and I “think” I know the culprit.

Let me know what you “think” I am realizing…

embrace not fitting in…

I am choosing to embrace the fact that I have never and will never “fit in”.

So many years have been wasted to “fit in” and it just hasn’t worked.

I think I understand why now…

Dealing with your aging parents…

Overwhlemed

Growing up I never really thought of how it was going to be when my parents got older.  I saw my mother take care of her mom and uncle in our home, (I am not at that point yet) but it is different when you have the responsibility yourself.

It can be hard dealing with everyday issues and remembering how your parents used to handle the same things when they were younger.  Hearing is a big factor.  When you can’t hear well, (I am starting to experience that myself) things get confusing.

Our parents are all aging just as we are.  It is just as hard for them so it is important to be there for them just as we hope our children will be there for us…
