I've been experimenting with guided meditation lately and I had the most relaxing and peaceful experience today.

I was standing on the edge of a meadow. Grass and wildflowers gently blowing in the breeze. The sun shined warmly on my face. A nice, cool breeze.

I walked through the meadow to the edge of a forest. It was tall oak and pine trees. Birds were singing and there was dappled sunlight.

On the far end of the forest, I came to a small beach and a sea with waves gently crashing against the shore. I walked directly into the sea and let the waves cleanse me. I came out of the sea feeling purified and relaxed.

I walked a little ways down the beach, back into the forest, and came across a sunken garden. It felt very welcoming and looked like a good place to rest. I walked down a few steps into the garden, admiring the variety of plants and flowers. I stopped at a concrete bench in the middle of the garden, under the shade of a huge weeping willow.

I laid across the bench and just enjoyed my time there, before I walked back out and through the field I had first found.

The garden seemed like the perfect place to meet and chat with friends. Maybe next time I'll be lucky enough to have someone there waiting for me.

I haven't felt that at peace in months.

Okay, the weirdest thing just happened. Little bit of background info: my family is catholic, but I haven't practiced in probably 10-15 years. I still retain some spiritual beliefs, such as feathers in your path being a sign from angels or the other side. I don't know if that's specifically catholic, or just a family belief.

So I'm feeling pretty down today. I'm exhausted, stressed from work, and unmotivated. It's mid-afternoon. I just got out of bed. I'm a hot mess. Haven't showered, barely functional. My dogs are out of food, so I need to go to the store. I walk out the door and bam, get hit in the face with this feather.

I take it as a message, so I put it in my pocket. What message? I'm not sure. To lighten up? To look on the bright side? That I am indeed headed in the right direction? Not 5 minutes later, I get this text from my cousin.

I didn't see it until I got back home, but my heart is so happy and I'm on the verge of tears. I absolutely love my cousin and her kids and this experience just made my whole day.

Spent the evening cleansing in a bubble bath with a beer. I had the chance to do a bit of divination and now feel all around relaxed and positive. 😊

One of my cousins moved back from out of state this week. She has 3 little girls and I've missed her so much. I got to go see her and her house renovations today and brought her a few houseplants. I thought I would be okay, but I just threw myself into the biggest hug around her and cried on her shoulder. It felt so good.

I seriously cannot express how happy I am to have her home. She's 5 minutes away. Her girls are some of my favorite humans ever. And now I have someone close with the same interests and thoughts and that is so comforting.

I'm looking forward to more nights, learning more about astrology and numerology and teaching a bit about tarot and honestly, just vibing. Good vibes are hard to come by.

Just need to vent for a quick minute.

.

.

.

Frustrated and sad. Sad because of adjusting to new birth control. Sad because hormones are all over the place. Sad because I feel stuck in a rut. Frustrated that this is what I feel like I have to do to my body to live the way I want. Frustrated that men don't have to fuck up their bodies for the same reasons. Frustrated that no matter what I do, I can't control my skin.

Unrelated frustration due to busting my ass at work constantly while others stroll around. A quick moment of excitement as I got the raise I asked for, until I realized the other tech makes more than me still despite me being certified and there for 4 YEARS longer. Frustrated that I've been waiting since April for health insurance, so I can't afford to see a doctor about my skin or my hormones or my sadness or my dental work or my eyes...Sad because clients continue to verbally abuse us for things we have zero control over. Sad because they do not recognize how hard I bust my ass to ensure quick and quality care for their pets. Sad because they do not recognize the intense education and testing I put myself through to allow me to better care for their pets.
