I Should Wear a Spandex Unitard Everyday...

This week I have felt as vulnerable as if I went to work wearing a Spandex unitard! Giving up things in my life that comfort me and protect me has made me feel open and exposed.(not Diet Pepsi and bagels - although not having these things have made me a little edgy!!). Emotions have been bubbling up at the surface and I've really had to be aware of them - nothing worse than an emotional girl spinning out of control (right guys??). I've had to hear from a friend she is moving away, work has been extremely stressful/busy, and I am really feeling the empty nest - missing Hols so much. However, I also feel in tune with my emotions and have had some great talks with friends and family that have made it worth it, made me feel stronger for it. Sharing myself with people I love is a gift for me and for them. Is it better to bury and ignore the emotions running through me or acknowledge them even when they are painful or uncomfortable. In trying to be my authentic self only the latter could be my answer. When the tears start coming don't worry...it's just a case of "crybabyitis"!
