Breathe deeply, let go

Today is one of those days where I must stifle myself. Though I have long criticized my husband's family in terms of not addressing emotional issues, I'm finally learning that there are times and places where it's just not productive or worth it. I used to attribute this type of silence to a lack of caring, but I now realize sometimes it's more about greasing the wheels of relationship and saving your energy for survival. Still doesn't feel right or good, but it takes time to change a perspective. The first step is to quit acting on directives from the Mother Ship.

So I'm out here in my little row boat today, exploring the islands.
