9.21.15 It takes so long

It takes so long to learn that being strong is not about sucking it up and stuffing it away and then doing what needs to be done. Rather, it's doing what needs to be done, and then making time and room , and inviting out those feelings we would rather have disappear , feeling them and being with them, so they get digested and then are able to , bit by bit, go on their way.
