I’ve Been Disappeared For A Bit

I am the phoenix rising

This is the well. Photo taken by author.

So, I took my inheritance and invested it in 11 acres and a well.

Life has really been a whirlwind lately. “They” said this would happen, things would move fast and keeping up is a skill I’m not great at. But I’m trying!

I’m definitely not doing this on my own- the boyfriend is also investing money and LOTS of time, energy, knowledge, and experience.

Okay, so my man is building me a barn… how cliche is that???? But I gotta admit, I’m loving all of it.

And that brings me to the real reason that I want to be typing tonight.

I am the phoenix rising.

I think differently now, I believe I’m being rewired. Not against my will or anything, but a conscious shift and it does take effort. This thing I’m doing- this treating myself with respect and dignity, it gets addictive.

This all happened because of him.

Cultish, right?!

Except he doesn’t cut me off from the world or try to keep me small. He’s all about expansiveness. His eyes light up when I succeed and am happy.

He shuts up and listens when I am scared or overwhelmed.
