Frozen

There are a lot of things in life that stop you in your tracks. We accept our harsh realities everyday. We can fake it till we make it. Our thoughts can become so big we can’t even look at them. We take a peek and they are overwhelming. Larger than life, beyond our understanding. Yes we all have fears, but there are big things people are dealing with or perhaps not dealing with, and you have no idea what they are.

Illness, survival, loss, grief. You can not tell people how to feel. You can not tell people to just move on. You can listen, without bias, without fixing. You can help them brainstorm, and comfort them. You can let them have thier feelings, scream, cry, whatever they want.

I just learned of a new place that you can go and wreck stuff. A room you go in and just smash things. I think we all need a room like that. I like renovating, my favourite part is ripping it down. Empty the room and tear the room down, all the walls, floors, trim. We have to learn to do this to ourselves too. Tear down the barriers that seperate us from our truths. Let your feelings out, do the ugly cry, talk with the squeeky voice. Tear out all the things, the brick walls that keep us from being stunted in our lives. Say the things we hold onto, let that shit go, get it off your chest. You don’t have to be mean, be real, find you!
