Change.

I've had the writing bug. So much on my mind. So many things needing to get out. But, the last month, it's been time on the therapists's couch hashing out my struggles that way rather than through writing. Some things are just too raw and too tender to put out there.

But, it's time again. I've gotta have another outlet. Life is changing in big ways. Change is scary. Uncharted territory is scary. Sometimes having to face your own emotions and imagining just getting through the day is scary.

I'm struggling to keep my head above water some days as I chart the path for a different life, not knowing what lies ahead. 

All I know is, I didn't make it this far alone, and I didn't make it this far without having guts. Whatever it is that awaits me and my sweet babies in this life is nothing we can't handle. 

Because we are brave, dammit. Even in change. We. Are. Brave.
