I can't think straight these days, well maybe I should just say these past two days. I saw Black Swan yesterday, man what a really intense movie that was! yikes! I noticed I was tensed up the whole movie, fists clenched, legs flexed, I left feeling worn out. On my way home from dropping Aubrey off I realized, I'm very stressed out and that movie brought it all out. My body is sore all over from stress, my mind is constantly going, constantly thinking, I started crying uncontrollably. Ever have that time when your mind just won't stop? Oh my god, JUST STOP please, pretty please? I'm thinking about jobs, what I want from myself, if I'll actually be able to move out, do I take jobs I don't really want for the money, I should be crocheting, I should be making my button plugs, I should be working towards a bigger goal.... I'm just always thinking. Shit, this would wear anyone out.
So I stopped to think some more, really Tiffany? really? idiot! I need to realize I have only two arms and two legs, I can only do so much. One thing at a time, do what's most important first, and when I'm done with that, do what's next. I know, this sounds very juvenile, everyone knows that's how it works, so do I. I just needed the reminder, I needed to remind myself to take it easy on myself. I tend to be a little too hard on myself. I knew I was pushing the "real job" hunting to the side because I've NEVER done something like that before, it felt great. But I knew that when it really hit me it would hit me hard, I was just hoping it wouldn't? haha. I needed to sacrifice some time with some really important people so I could get some of this clutter cleared out of my mind and start to feel like I was heading in a direction, any direction really, lol, start feeling like myself.
Last night I tried to meditate for a little while, jesus that shit is hard. I'll try again tonight, I think I will really benefit from the time to quiet my mind, focus my thoughts and really learn to feel and hear myself, to quiet everything else so I can hear all my thoughts clearly, concisely; they all need their chance to be heard in the whirl wind and tornado that is my head.
One day at a time. Today I feel better, except something I ate upset my stomach. One day at a time.
