I've had a lot of time to think of the things I want
& the things I feel I deserve. Perhaps I'm piling my thoughts
on top of the bad thoughts - but it's a good distraction right? Healthy?
Who cares. I like my current thoughts.
They are being prolonged by the song I'm currently listening to.
I don't know why - I mean both are very separate from each other.
I get inspired in the oddest ways I guess.
Right now I wish I had the 'want' to go get hashbrowns.
I think that's all Amber would eat right now & she needs to eat.
I think she's got the oven on & is heating some chips.
Anyway back to the things I want.
Yes I am in a ditch - a rut, a whatever.
There are things that I know I need to work on.
I find it hard to accept at times
but everyone needs a bit of help, correct?
I am just like those people - who once or more in their life
just need a little hand to get things back on track.
Nothing weird about that.
I don't feel stupid or useless.
I actually feel very in control of my life & my decisions.
Sure I sook from time to time, but I don't need mothering.
Perhaps I have too much pride.
I like to work through my things alone -
rather than bringing in third parties etc.
That's just how I've been programmed. Indeed.
Wow, I actually just started crying.
Amber - unaware of what I'm writing,
just came in for a hug/cuddle. I like that.
I've been very emotional today. I blame my period for that.
I hate periods, they're just so inconvenient. Oh well.
So, here's some things I want to write about.
I want a family. I want to have a baby in a few years time.
Why do I feel like people would be disappointed in me?
Because I don't think they understand how I work.
I don't think they really know who I am.
I don't think they think I can do it.
I spent my life growing up - being taught things.
Things that as I grew up - wasn't how things turned out to be.
I had people saying I could do something & I had others saying I couldn't.
Why do I feel like they'll be saying I can't this time.
A little insight - for as long as I can remember - I have always wanted a family of my own.
I also have always been a lesbian - so I know that it wouldn't be the easiest thing to do.
My family knows I am gay & accept me & my partner's family love me.
The being gay has never been a problem for them. Which I admire.
Admittedly when I came out - I did not get a good reaction.
It's like all of a sudden I was dead & this stranger was still trying to drown me.
Intense. It's hard to explain when your mother turns on you for being yourself.
Anyway I like to feel that that's all in the past.
Simply because my mother loves me/adores me & accepts me.
My parents are older than most parents also.
So their values are pretty different, all traditional-like.
I wouldn't really know how to tell them that we're having a baby.
Right now I can't think about it - because I need my other things in order first.
Still - I'd hate to catch a glimpse of how they really felt. You know.
I think I'm being all kinds of paranoid.
Mum has always said that I still can have kids.
I sure can.
I told Dad in the car a year or so ago that I want a family w/ kids.
He wanted to talk to me more about it - but I just honestly get scared.
I am very scared of opening up to my family.
I love my parents but there are some things I'm still dealing with.
Wow. I am being rather open to Blogger currently.
I'm afraid that realisation has set in - so I'm closing off.
I don't mean to, but I've already cleared my chest off a little.
I might be the lamest person in the world,
but I feel I would make a really good mother.
Family means the world to me. I can't wait to start my own.
Got to focus on me for the time being.
Thanks for letting me get that all out.
Love
