Hope
Hope is something that is needed to be in recovery. If it weren’t for hope I wouldn’t be in recovery and I don’t think I would be writing this blog. The reason being is I think if it weren’t for the hope I have I would have died by suicide. I wrote a poem on hope.
Hope is something
One must desire. With hope recovery is
Possible. It’s possible for
Everyone even if they believe they are too far gone.
Hello, World!!! I’m feeling slightly better than my last post. I owe it to taking a shower, eating and DBT skills. Skills that have helped me a lot the last fourteen and a half years.
One of the things I did after my shower was do some collaging. A collaged a couple of poems. So, I combined art and poetry into one skill or at least this time around. I love being able to combine my skills into one as it is quite helpful.
Another thing I did was read. I read the rest of the news paper that I didn’t finish reading this morning. I also read a little bit of the book that is taking me a long while to read. I am enjoying it though.
I did all these skill while listening to music. Music helps a great deal. I think after I am done blogging, I’m going to play the flute.
I hope everyone has a great night. Peace Out, World!!!!
Good Morning (again), World!!! I am still up from waking up from a shitty ass nightmare. A nightmare that is still haunting me three and half hours later.
Something I’ve been doing the last three and half hours is art. I have been painting as well as collaging. I love doing both. I have been collaging some poems and am loving combining poetry and art together.
I think what I a going to do after I am done blogging is read. Not sure if I am going to be reading a book, text book or comic book but I think I’ll most likely going to be reading a Wonder Woman comic book. Wonder Woman is my favorite comic book character.
I think I am going to get going and read some Wonder Woman. Have a wonderful morning. Peace Out, World!!!
Untitled Poem
by Gertie
Looking into his eyes as he caresses my naked body gives a pleasure that one cannot describe.
He inserts his penis and I have an instant orgasm.
A smile cross’s his face and mine as we have a moment that only we could enjoy.
Good Afternoon, World!!! I couldn’t write a poem due writers block so I’m sharing the above poem that I shared with you before.
Untitled Poem
by Gertie
At first its like a movie. A movie that wont stop.
A movie that cant be put on pause.
A movie that makes you feel like you a re-experiencing what’s in the movie.
A re-experience nobody wants to deal with to begin with.
Untitled Poem
by Gertie
Looking at the their arms.
Arms that look like railroad tracks.
Arms that aren’t suppose to look like a railroad track but do.
Sadly the scars have others stare.
Fortunately, the scars have help with being an advocate
An advocate for those who have no voice.
The Journey of Recovery
by Gertie
Recovery is a path.
A path that is journey.
A journey that has valley’s as deep as Death Valley.
Peeks so high that its like you are looking down from the peek of Mount Everest.
The journey isn’t always deep or high its sometimes flat and boring or even like a rollercoaster that goes upside and backwards.
The journey of recovery isn’t meant to be flat and easy but its well worth it.
It’s worth it to have a life worth living, whatever that looks like to you.
Good Morning, World!!! As I sit here starting this post, I realize that I forgot to do my weekly check-in yesterday. I’m disapointed that I didn’t do it like I said I would however I’ve also been blogging more on the regular basis that you a well aware of what my week was like. So my plans for the week are as follows:
Sunday:
Monday:
Tuesday:
Wednesday:
Thursday:
Friday:
Saturday:
Thank you for reading my long boring post about my week to come. As you can tell I’m cleaning my apartment a lot. Its because its a disaster area. I tend to not keep up household chores when my depression gets bad. I plan on spening about 15 minutes a day to clean so I don’t get overwhelmed.
Thank you again for reading my blog. Its apreciated. Peace Out, World!!!
Friends
by Gertie
Friends become family. A chosen family
Rare as it is, some even risk their own life for you.
It never ceases to amaze how close chosen family be.
Even thought there are an argument or two,
Nothing can get between our chosen family.
Dependability is something that is always counted on when times get bad.
So here’s to those friends who have become family.
Living slowly, adventuring often ✨️
Life is all about being curious, asking questions, and discovering your passion. And it can be fun!
