Today’s song

September 10

Baby steps become strides.
Bursting with this wonderful life.
Yes, change is real.
Codependency can be broken.
I knew something was different
when I had a few bad incidents happen at work.

Kalanna’s usual response? Sulking.
Kalanna’s new response? Shrugging it off.
If so and so didn’t like what I did about that, that’s her problem.
I have done my best and busted my bottom all day,
caring to the millionth detail.
I know that I do a good job.
In fact, I do a damn good job.
And I’m allowed my own opinion.
I’m even allowed mistakes.

My inner voice stood up for me.
Breakthrough.
As I smiled, this was the daily song going through my head.

  • "Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable." — C.S. Lewis
