Today was a day when I had to intentionally change routines. I went to church, which was a really good thing for me, and it’s challenging me to consider what I think about my life in relation to, well a lot of things. I had some conversations with people after the service and I alluded to some of what’s going on and about “the straw that broke the camel’s back” and if now is a new season or another ‘straw’. Nothing specific was said but they suggested further conversations. That could be a good thing as they are certainly older and much much wiser than I am and their words have guided me in the past.  Right now it this situation feels like another straw — and I’m feeling tired and emotionally bruised (it matches my physical soreness, actually…).
I hope the peace that I was feeling was real, right now I just feel sadness.
I went for brunch with some of my friends — a different group than my standing brunch group — and it was nice to meet up with them, I needed a distraction as I can’t go to my standing brunch for now. Afterwards I went home and napped before heading to dinner with my family. On my way I was exploring the music of Jacob Moon (who performed last Sunday), the song that’s linked below is one that really touched me. Come Talk To Me by Jacob Moon
For now though, I’m going to go to bed nice and early. I’m tired, weary, sore and a lot of other emotions.
