Krista, big hugs and I feel the same way about you…

Naturalgal…yes…I agree, and have basically reached the point where I feel like it would be healthy to take a step back from the dating thing.

Svasti - thanks for visiting my blog and commenting. What a beautiful beautiful comment. I love that idea of the “rising sun within my heart.” Gorgeous, thank you!

Chris, oh my goodness, thank you for the alternate and light-hearted perspective on Power Rangers. It sure would do us all some good if I could figure out a way to shift my perspective on this issue of “aggression” as I am labeling it.

Alaina - we’re gonna make it happen! Thanks for reaching out

Karen - love to you, thank you…yes…for witnessing and reminding.

T - I so appreciate you feeling comfortable to comment here…always know you’re welcome to share whatever in this virtual space. Big hugs to you mama.

Stacy - ah yes, at least we recognize our hang ups, lol.

Gianna - thank you for your kind words, right back atcha, beauty!

Bringing up a boy, I can imagine (not that I have kids), would be challenging as a woman. Especially given what we know of the history of opression/aggression by men. But oh, what a wonderful honour, the chance to bring a man into this world who knows its okay to care and show love.

Think I’ve lived with one kind of broken heart or another for many years now, on and off. But mostly on. Perhaps, for those of us who write… or are more sensitive… that’s just part of how it goes?

On a hunch, I’d say you need to find some space to stop spinning, even for ten minutes. Just time for you, doors locked, phones off and get connected with your breath, and the rising sun within your heart that draws us all back to source.

incidentally, your post has lovely language.

Power Rangers is best viewed as ballet or camp. it is stylized and fun. You can ask Ben to do his moves and it is just like first position etc from dance but with more fun sound effects. kind of like the dancing of the sharks and jets in west side story looks now. red ranger ready! Now twirl and 2 3 jump.

The growing thing - too fast - I get that and I hate that. It’s so hard to do it all, because we just can’t.

I think a road trip is in order. You need a BIG fat fucking hug. Shall we meet in the middle? I’m daydreaming. But not really because you’re only like 6 hours away.

So let’s get planning. And I get free gas…

Your tattoo kicks the shit out of my tattoo. FYI. You rock mama.

and Rachel told me, “Well, you sound just fine online!”

but i’m not. still hurting. broken. sad. want time to stop and just give me a moment to regroup.

(see what i’m doing here? same as you. if you don’t mind)

i’m hangin’ on and i know this will pass but i’m too tired to even blog about it.

so…. i’ll comment about it.

right there with ya. yep. ditto.

I’m hung up on aggression too. And I have TWO boys.

Hugs,
Stacy
