What's on Your Mind?

Recuperating from several very emotional days processing some VERY heavy crap. Need to get away from virtual land. (Step away from the keyboard.)
 
Sometimes you reach out to people in moments of stress. People who meant something for a time. Someone who disappointed you, someone you disappointed. You live long enough, there are those moments. We do the best we can do.
Amen. And the best we can do sometimes varies widely from one day to the next.
 
It’s amazing how those close to me in real life can be so harshly judgmental and unforgiving, when they are just as human as I am.
 
I’m reading and thinking the answer of “what’s on your mind” just to find out I’m reading and thinking the answer of “what’s on your mind” just to find out I’m reading and thinking the answer of……
 
People will always disappoint us. We will always disappoint others. We can just do the best we can do at any given moment and sometimes it isn't enough. Do what you can and love yourself. And keep learning. :)

Wherever I go there I am.

The question is, what are my intentions? Am I lobbying for compassionate and courageous change in my world around me? Or, am I beating my breast, flogging myself, regretting my mistakes, dwelling on words said in anger that hurt people deeply, myself included, and retreating into my walls?
 
I’m laying in bed watching The Golden Girls and wondering if I’ll have any regrets when I’m elderly. I’m 35 years old and have no regrets (so far).
Time is a great healer but scars remain until we've lost the ability to remember what caused them.
 
How I miss those days when Bob Dole and Daniel Monyihan oversaw the senate.
Ha! When the news was more polite... inquisitive but polite. When big oil, tobacco and guns were still symbols of American success! Not the despotic and necrotic excesses they really are.
 
Still kicking. Stent seems to have settled in. Getting tired of taking my blood pressure every day, but the BP is good. I decided after the visit with the gyn oncologist I was not a good candidate for a hysterectomy. The cyst has deceased in size, I have no symptoms, and there's no way at my age I'm going through major surgery for something I probably don't have. Walking 25 miles weekly. Looking forward to doing planks after my frozen shoulder heals. :)
 
I orgasmed recently. It had been 3 months since the heart attack and stent. The thought crossed my mind that I might bring on a heart attack, but it had been 3 months. I figured I would be OK.

They say women usually don't have chest pains like men do. I can tell you some of us do. I didn't know that's what was going on bc it took 3 trips to the ER for someone to finally say it isn't GERD. I had no other symptoms. No shortness of breath, no sweating, no gastro symptoms, etc. I just knew I was experiencing unbearable, unrelenting, horrible pain over my sternum for up to 30 minutes no matter what I was doing. It woke me up twice.

Still kicking. :)

WOW! I had no idea you had gone through all of that. I am glad you are recovering and having an orgasm ;) But it is a major concern for women that they do not usually have the classic heart attack symptoms :(
