This past weekend two of my dear friends flew in to see me from Philadelphia, Steve & Rachel. Their arrival came the day after my first therapy session where I realized that I'm feeling very disconnected from those who are my biggest support system. The #1 person in that system being my mom but also the rest of my family and close friends....all of which are on the east coast/far away. So it was truly wonderful to have some time to reconnect with people I feel close to and who were there when I was dealing with the most traumatic time of my whole life. And to have people in my support system see my life here in LA and have some understanding and appreciation for why I chose this new journey for myself. I've been struggling with the fact that really only my Mom has spent any time out here to see what I've made of my short time here so far and I only wish the rest of my family and close friends could see it as well. But for now, I'll continue to look for the strength in myself and find a way to tackle each day as it comes....after all, this is my journey--me, myself, and I.
