The new normal…

is not really normal at all. It’s just a ‘one foot in front of the other’ kind of life. it is just a life.
Not nearly as happy as the old normal. Not as shiny nor as bright. No skip in my step. No secret joy in my heart.
Still.
I suppose it’s not as dark as it was. The world isn’t as heavy. The air not as thick.
That’s what time does. It takes the things you never really imagined would happen to you and fashions them into something that resembles normal.
The new normal.
The only normal that’s left.

    Wishing that this was an easier thing to live past, or better yet, that you didn’t have to deal with it at all. But you sound stronger, and I’m hoping that joy and a spring in your step find you again soon. Thinking of you.

  2. I know how you feel about taking the things you never really imagined would happen to you and fashions them into something that resembles normal…. the new normal is certainly painful but one day we might look back on this time with a new perspective on what it has brought us. Love to you always xoxo
