auld lang syne

my wallet got stolen last night.
while devastating and no small inconvenience, i find it rather poetic that this happen before the new year.
my right brain is clamoring for the symbolism and significance of it all.
this is a harsh reminder to stay the course.  things are getting too out of hand.  i was getting lost in a fog of nostalgia and old habits.  i was getting caught up in sadness, as if an ex-boyfriend had walked back into my life.  allowing myself to ruminate and obsess over an emotion.  letting it take over my being.  i was forgetting who i am now (who i worked so hard to become) and trying to be something i am not.
i am healthy, and able, and my family is intact.  i should focus on those things.  life will happen, when we're least ready for it.  i do not have much, but i should treasure what i have more than what i think i want.
i do deserve to be happy, and the universe will give that to me when it wants, via the avenue that is most appropriate.


in the meantime, i really need to look after my things better.
