As I tremble, from the sheer weight of my feelings underneath it all.
My hands are shaking, the blood races around my body.
I roar, the tiger inside momentarily wounded.
Reliving the moments, I feel the pain of my recent past. Hurting from it all, renewed anger and sadness rising from the pit of my stomach.
It is laid bare before a new person who didn’t know. She is in tears as I leave. Why did I do that to her? I did not do it on purpose or for gain it is my cry for help. The long awaited appointment.
The ups and downs of thinking that I may have healed myself but the reality that the painful process has just begun again. I return to the safety of my car, where I sit and look at random things for a few minutes. My head pounding and a feeling of sickness creeping through my throat. I need to calm my nerves feeling numb, a bit dazed and confused. The next step in my therapy.

Oh, my Lord….we are on parallel journeys…you’ve expressed so beautifully and succinctly that which I cannot today….thank you for sharing …there are two oars on my boat, and I offer one to you…it’s the least I can do since you are generous enough to encourage me 🙂
