I am just thrilled with my life. I am alive again. I am meeting people, talking to people, and all of this from somebody who is sort of shy.
I am at the gym almost everyday, and I almost always talking to someone about something. I am talking to other runners to get advice on what they do. I am getting positive feedback. People seem to like to approach me to talk and vice versa.
It used to be I went to just lose weight, then when I saw my T , he was a good reason to go, now I am going to talk to people and have a good time. Me social? Who knew?
Then tonight, I have band rehearsal and tomorrow. More people. I am even sort of a mentor to some of the young students.
I still want to have a close friend, but I guess that will come.Getting rid of the pain in your heart of your past, leaves more room for joy.
I know that I am the one who changes my life and made it more rich, but without therapy I would hate to see where I would be now. I am very glad I reached out for help, and happy I luckly found a great experienced T who could really help.
In my yoga book, it said something like when a student is ready to learn, a teacher will appear. Well I guess I was ready to "learn" because my T appeared and WE have done this together as a team.
I may joke all the time on how sexy he is and how I want to "bop" him and stuff like that, but I really do like him and have a lot of gratitude and respect for what he does.
I am smiling today, I saw my T today at the gym, he saw me smiling (and not at him), but he saw my smile, and he had to know he is responsible for a part of that. ;-).I am really going to smile at him, when I learn how to run and then I am going to run right past his butt, and laugh! LOL
My T said a very kind thing to me last week. I was talking about how my new trumpet "sings", and he said "just like you. " :-) That still makes me smile. What a sweetie!
I am even thinking of taking swimming lesson. Yes, I don't know how to swim. I almost drowned when I was a toddler, and since then I have been too scared. But now I want to tackle that fear.
Do you think I should ask my T (who was a very good competitive swimmer in HS) to help me at the gym. Ummmmmm. Maybe not! LOL
Have a great day everyone and remember therapy can do wonders.
