While reading my friend Dave’s Blog, he asked why people read his blog (as there has been a large amount of negative/positive response to it as of late). One commenter wrote “Probably the same reason why you write it. Words are therapeutic.” Which struck a cord with me. Words are therapeutic, and can be very helpful…at most times.
Lately, I’ve been feeling a little off, and upset about everything (and nothing in particular at the same time). Which happens from time to time with me, but I can usually talk myself out of it, knowing that having a negative attitude doesn’t do anything for me, or anyone for that matter. But this time… I haven’t been able to. When talking about things would usually make me feel better, it hasn’t been much help.
There has been no words to explain what’s going on or what I’m upset about…and in turn, no words have been comforting. So, what does a person do when words can’t help a problem that they also can’t explain?
Just feel………………………………..
I love YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve been feeling the same way the past few weeks and like you, the activities, words of comfort and all the other ways that makes me feel better before weren’t working anymore. My friends and I decided to do a coffee date every week, we chose a VBar Cafe on Sullivan and Bleecker at the Greenwhich Village here in NYC. Its where we share great news, bad news, vent, gossip…we talk! And like what your post title says, indeed “words are therapeutic!”
hope you feel better!
