I didn’t draw today.
\nAlso, I’ve edited this post like 30 times in the last 4 hours, because I either keep rambling or say too many downer things.((Why, hello, anxiety!))<\/p>\n
I finally stopped procrastinating on buying the wedding rings! I did it! I bought a nice pair of silver and gold rings that will be engraved with our names and wedding date by next week! :D
\nI also got myself a new roll of blue masking tape and a delicious ice cream <3<\/p>\n
Of course my brain decided the whole thing was enough mental effort for today, so that was mostly it for today.
\nI managed to mail the cake person today about a quote, though! And had a good chat with a good friend.<\/p>\n
I… keep things in for a long time.
\nIt is a thing with me. I rarely ever let things go, good or bad, when it comes to people; I remember fondly all the people I loved or enjoyed hanging out with, I keep interpersonal regrets forever and I also tend to hold (small, petty) grudges till the end of time. ((I think I’ve only ever grown indifferent towards one person in my whole life. One. I often forget this person even exists, tbh.))<\/p>\n
I’ve learned with time that my feelings are on me, though. The people that provoked them are in no way responsible for them, let alone of the fact that I hold on to them; in fact, it’s actually very likely that the people I may have had issues with in the past don’t even care about me at all anymore or maybe they don’t even remember me! So, it’s rather pointless to keep those negative feelings, even if they’re just only mildly negative.
\nThe regrets, however… those are harder to let go.<\/p>\n
I’ve noticed that most of the time, though, my issues come not from what people have ‘done’ to me, but from my own insecurities being reflected and sometimes amplified back to me, triggered by whatever it is that happened. And when I’m hurt for being disappointed by people I cared about, in the end it also comes back to me as I question my own judgement and behavior about why and how I choose to get close to certain people.
\nSo, when looking at everything, it’s all on me and what *I* feel, think and do, and not on the people those feelings are associated with.<\/p>\n
Been thinking about that.
\nIt’s actually a bit easier to let things go when you realize most of the stuff comes from yourself anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
