Suddenly the saying, "the calm before the storm" has a whole new meaning now that I am a mother and a wife. I remember my mother used to use it before predicted drama, but for me, it is simply peace before yet another ridiculous event caused by a very ridiculous person.
I consider myself a very fair and caring person, however I do have my limits! I show huge amounts of compassion, for the right individuals and situations, but I also do not allow you to mess up more than once, if my past has taught me anything, it is that my heart will allow someone to walk all over me and I will be left wondering what on earth did I do to deserve that.
In my previous post I posted that I was angry, and those feelings I am true about, there are things that have happened in my past that I am unable to let go of, and i know that they affect my present and my future, however isn't it all just "the calm before the storm?"
Ideally, life is like a step ladder, each situation is just another rung on your ladder, each storm getting bigger and bigger until it ultimately causes a hurricane where you must prepare and protect yourself. And how do you protect yourself from that storm, well, first you must find the calm, and then you put up walls, cover windows, build shelters and gather supplies.
I've put up those walls, I have built my shelter, i'm covering my windows and what I lack, are the supplies. :)
This is my calm, and the storm is about to fire up.
