Today I meet with my new therapist. I have told my story so many times, one would think I can recite it without much emotion. It is different when it is you are meeting a new therapist. This person is to form diagnostic and therapeutic summations and judgments based on her professional expertise. Or simply put, tell me what she believes will help me get through my ups and downs besides just medications. That is all for the good of my self. I must keep in mind that she is there to help even if she causes me to expose old pains I have buried so deep I can recall why they are there. That is the really kicker. I am exposing my story for her to expose the pain so as to help me live a more productive, abundant life. When I expose my story to others, it is in hopes for you to see you are not alone in your struggles. Sharing my story allows you to know that someone, even though I struggle, is making a positive difference in the lives of others.
Also today, I have a lunch date with a lovely lady that I met through Ron and church. She owns a retail specialty shop that she makes a comfortable living off of. In that fact I find her inspiring as both a business woman and a friend. She has said another lady has asked often of me at church and will be joining us. I am not sure how I feel about that. Mainly because I am not sure who the woman is. Hopefully I am in good spirits and not down from my appointment.
The title of this post causes me to think of all the things this day holds within it's grasp; Hope, Laughter, Peace, Coffee, maybe some ice cream... hugs and kisses...
I am going to make myself shower... chat more later.
