Yesterday was a rough day. I try to keep my chin up and remain peaceful and positive, but sometimes it just doesn't work. Sometimes I just want to cry, I don't want to get out of bed, I don't want to face the reality of my life. So this was the first day that I really had trouble nurturing myself. Add on to that fact that I dream about him almost every night, it makes for an emotional me.
So yesterday I tried to be nurturing to myself. I did my devotions, took a bath, had a visit with a friend and yet I was still sort of in a funk. As I reflected on the ways I tried to nurture me I realized that although I felt down, the effort is something. I am going to have bad days. I am going to be sad and down. This is grieving. So yesterday I nurtured by allowing myself to feel those things. And when those days come again(which I am quite sure they will), I will give the effort, but also be accepting about the emotions.
A friend shared this song with me and it is fitting for where I am right now:
