365 Letters to Myself

Therapy Writing

There are many ways, beliefs and I share them, that writing is good therapy. Apparently, in the lack of working with a therapist, I am working through my issues with 'paper and pen', aka posting 365 letters in a blog. Over and over again, I seek answers for that which eludes understanding. And repeatedly, I come to a similar answer, there are no answers... but there is faith, choice, alternative perspectives.

Being a certified Coach, choice and perspectives are valuable tools. Being a devoted, practicing Christian, faith has been a lifelong blessing for me to draw upon. But being human, if I must revisit a wound that remains tender - I seek grace from myself to keep writing about it, hopeful one day I will truly determine enough is enough - the bruising is gone.

In my writing, the theme is often the same - lies, damaged character, no closure - truth, one truth known by all. Also in my writing, I am grateful for possibilities through new experiences. I don't know how many more times I can acknowledge being hurt and betrayed, as therapy gives space to. Betrayals require others to own that which they may not agree with, out of my control. I do know that I can control writing about opportunities, blessings, encounters, insights, 'everything happens and is working out as it should - for a reason'. The reason suggested to me once by a trusted source, 'bigger and better' exists for the taking. How exciting!

Once again, a bit of writing has therapeutically delivered a mood for the day.

Hmmm, paper and pen, 307!

Thank you if you choose to join the journey. A better life, a better way.
