here again

Rachel Brown
Oct 14, 2021

Uncertainty strikes. I loose my footing. Then I lose my grounding. Next up, I loose the security that foundation gave me. Time passes. Still haven’t gained that footing back. Now I find myself anxious about everything that is to come. Consumed by worst case scenario thinking and planning. I get lost here again.

But wait, I said again.

I’ve come to a realization.

I’m not lost, I know where I am because I’ve been here before. Upon familiar territory I remember if I’ve been through this before, therefore I can get through it again. Then comes the strength to put my foot down, regaining the ground. Next up is confidence to say enough is enough as I reclaim my thoughts as my own.

May this be the last time I find myself here, again.
