FEELING GUT PUNCHED

Today I feel like I was punched in my gut, and it really stinks. I made the mistake of trusting something and was extremely let down and now I am trying to deal with the emotions that have come out of it. I learned long, long ago as a child that the only person I could trust was myself, so I built walls and stopped trusting others or having any expectations. It was safer that way.

Today I have to work on how I deal with disappointment in a healthy way. I’m not good at it I know. The challenge to be better and do better when I’m already emotionally exhausted feel’s insurmountable. One breath at a time. Just like one bite at a time. Just like one day at a time!
