Running away from fear and towards freedom…
Relationships/Dating November 6th, 2007Well, I got a bit done today in regards of catching up.
I paid some bills and deferred some.
I rearranged some meetings, and booked a few others.
I went for a 2.5 mile run - and man do I feel great. I crossed alot more ground than I had realised.
And while I was out running, had a few revelations:
- Deciding to go for a run at 3:00PM is not a good idea - too many prams to try and dodge
- Getting caught up in your exercise can be a good thing - cleared a full mile before I realised
- Even when you’re covered in sweat and getting your exercise on, men will still try to chat you up
- Having headphones that dont go REAL LOUD sucks - I like my music LOUD
- System of A Down is great music to run to if you’re in the mood
- Lilly Allen isn’t
- Running can really clear your head
- It can also get rid of cramps
- My lungs need more exercise - I need to do this daily for at least the next week to build up stamina - and lay off the curry for awhile
I have also done some soul searching and have decided that I will no longer be controlled by fear.
The ex cannot hurt me any more, and I refuse to give him that power.
I will continue to have the police alarm in the house, but I no longer feel like a prisoner - I feel free.
I am free.
Free from your anger.
Free from your hatred.
I am free from your need to make me feel inadequate because of your needs/wants/desires/fetishes that always came first.
Free from your need to punish and control.
Most of all, I am free to love and to be loved again, in a way I never thought possible.
And you can’t take that away from me.

I was quite literally heartbroken to hear about the problems with Rob- my heart goes out to you. If there’s anything at all I can do for you, you only have to ask. In the meantime I’m so proud of your progress- It’s absolutely fantastic- keep it up. Love you forever,
