It occurred to me last night that I hadn't cried myself to sleep in almost a week.
For two months after receiving some bad family news, I pretty much cried myself to sleep every night.
And now, though I'm still kinda down, I'm realizing that when one door closes, another opens. One chapter of my life- that I wasn't ready to end- has closed on me and now I need to look forward to the door that's about to open.
Thanks everyone for your support through this tough time- for carrying me until I could stop crying and see "A Better Day."
About Me
- SavedAspie
- I'm saved. I'm a self-diagnosed Aspie. I've lived a decent life, but sure wish I would have known about AS back in grade school, high school, and college. My friends and I started a website for Autism (www.MarylandAutism.org). The site is still going, but none of us live in Maryland anymore. I'm walking a fine line between being active in helping those with Aspergers get the most out of life and keeping myself together in the professional realm. Don't know why it's so hard to pursue these goals concurrently, but one provides fulfillment, while the other pays the bills. This is a blog for Saved Aspies. Others are welcome, too! There aren't many of us, probably because we are typically not treated well by social institutions (including churches). But I've come a long way since my self-diagnosis, and I owe it all to Him.

Glad you're feeling better.
You're right about the chapters thing. They never finish "neatly" but close off when you're not quite done.
Sometimes it's hard to move on but you've gotta do it. Give the next chapter of your life a chance to unfold.
