Starting to bounce back?

The vortex of emotions can come at unexpected times.

Watching a TV show may evoke memories; even opening a cabinet at home.

I've read that the only way to stop the vortex from paralyzing you is by rebuilding your emotional resiliency to face memories.

I think I'm starting to rebuild some but am only cautiously optimistic because you never know what tomorrow will bring.

Fingers crossed.

Flashbacks

I joined a support group last week.

The 1st homework assignment was to bring in a family picture or two to tomorrow's group.

I spent a short amount of time looking at some old photos earlier this evening.

I've spent a much longer time trying to recover emotionally.

The homework led to heartache.

I'm sure that was expected.

We will talk about it tomorrow.

I'll be fine.
