Anger, Divorce and Coastal Fog

on giving thanks to fortune

I never knew letting anger surface would be so empowering.

Enter, last week. 💥

Divorce is tough with all the layers involved in its process. Add moving again 😣 , a continued job search, parenting a child and a hormonally ablaze 65 pound puppy plus the tasks of daily life in an insane world…

Am I complaining? Nope. Am I a victim? Nope.

As a woman, have I been told anger is not OK? Yep. Just like men have been told, “Don’t cry.”

It’s crap — one of the most stunningly gorgeous things I’ve ever seen is a man letting tears surface from his heart to his cheeks. As his tears spill, 💦 I get that feeling…

God is dancing here. ✨

As a woman who already “owns” her power, one of the wisest choices I’ve ever made is to FEEL FULLY… to let it all surface and to give it a voice in writing, singing, 🎶 dancing… so it all moves through and does not stay stuck inside.

A great “Soul Ally” of 18 years reminded me last week that I am feeling for all of consciousness — we aren’t separate. Some women aren’t safe to feel anger; they might get beaten or raped if they do. I am not in these cages of horror; though I have no key to free women (or men) who are violated, I will feel as fully as I can, to feed our freedom.

Life ain’t easy.

But when you add a Master Relationship Coach, morning hikes with coastal fog draping Earth’s curves, oh — and a spouse (soon-to-be ex-husband) who is a good and gifted man and a spectacular father to your child...

Count yourself very, very fortunate. 🤎 And keep singing.
