Hi Ellen...I am very happy you are "transitioning" and loving it.
I wish you the very very best in life and all you do. However, I think, you need better balance
You have left a ton of damages in your wake....houses deserted, husbands/partners abruptly dumped children scattered around....possibly grieving the fact their parents are not "together".
I am still in a 52 year marriage as I care for someone who literally has been "the love of my life"
while his whole body falls apart from the "vaccines" which I did not believe in and did not get.
We still own our vacation place in Puerto Rico--bought 20 years ago and I still am talking to various friends from every stage of this and other adventures-- Letting go of one shore....just to do that, seems silly and possibly counter productive.
Anyway....the point of writing to you is just humor I suppose. And an exercise in compare and contrast.
We are almost like creatures from different planets. Sometime I even eat a COOKED STEAK!!!!
...oh the horror. Good luck to you and I hope you find a buyer soon! Love Kathy
Dear Kathy, I respect your path, for sure, though I don't actually find humor in your assessment of my choices. Anyone who has chosen the transitions I have, has had to touch the very depths of themselves to face and overcome the pernicious talons of grief and shame, and to access courage of a high order. Toxic relationships are no place for children to thrive. Necessary transitions, navigated with grace, are for the highest good of all. Perhaps I might have better articulated in my blog-post that letting go does not usually mean no more relationship at all with the old shore, it just necessitates a different form of relationship with it. I do have enthusiastic young buyers already. Perhaps one day I will attract the love of my life.
"the pernicious talons of grief and shame..." wow you write well.
Living with the courage to face those claws....is monumental.
that's a good one....
"toxic relationship" --- not as original but pushes a lot of buttons.
All my relationships are toxic right now....except for the one that is the most distant and at the same time...exists in every cell in my body.
Read Psalm 139 for details....but don't get me wrong...
I am not pushing any kind of orthodox religious beliefs..."THE SCIENCE" as mr. Fauci so famously intoned-- supports truth. I am not science OR truth.
"shame and grief" exist as a darkness ....we live to bring a light there and solve the origins of these horrifying emotions that seem to pervade almost every relationship since the beginning. See Adam and Eve who were put in the beautiful and fruitful garden....they did a naughty and have been fighting ever since about "whose fault it was"
Anyway I am happy for you and happy for me as well. Many people are "angry" at our creator for making us who we are. I am just angry at the CDC and the WEF and the NIH for their horrible and destructive meddling. I could could on and on about the toxic claws and their horrible talons i live with....but these claws have taught me almost everything I
feel is worth knowing....and sometimes it takes a lifetime to know that "the love of your life"...is inside you and will love you no matter what!
Thanks Ellen - so much wisdom here in the paradoxes - the false security of clinging, and liberating freedom of letting go.... Reminds me of Alan Watts' classic The Wisdom of Insecurity.
