“It might seem strange to start a story with an ending. But all endings are also beginnings. We just don’t know it at the time.”
Mitch Albom
It has been seven days. Seven long, long days. And today, I think I feel okay. I guess what they say is true, time heals all wounds. Too bad there is not a fast forward button for your emotions, because lets face it, I am ready for this nightmare to be over. I have had good hours, bad hours, sad hours, and happy hours. As long as I am kept busy then my mind does not have time to wander. It feels as though I am on a never-ending roller coaster ride. "Hey, someone press the stop button, I want to get off!".
There is no switch, I just have to take it one day at a time. Ya know, the good with the bad, etc. etc. And what better to keep you busy than online shopping? Surprisingly, spending money is awfully therapeutic. Or maybe it is just the online browsing that helps to clear my mind. One headband, okay maybe two headbands, a dress, and bracelet and a smile may have appeared (slightly). Next time I'll try some earrings, maybe it will have a longer lasting effect.
There is no way to know for sure how long it will take for the grey clouds to dissipate. However, a small part of me is certain that the sun will shine again. Until then there are malls, books, friends, and chocolate. You can never go wrong with chocolate. Chocolate makes your heart just a little more full.
