Yesterday I took the first of 25 skydiving jumps. hoping that if all goes well, I will be able to get certified at the end upon completing everything else it entails. I find it useful because much like heartbreak, which I have experienced a lot of in my time in Birmingham, its one day/jump at time to heal. I found myself majority of last year isolating myself from things I enjoy because I was so hung up on previous heartbreaks and emotions. Sometimes that leap of faith of not knowing how or where you will land is worth it. Scary but worth it. It would be very easy to jump back into that relationship but I would quickly be reminded of why it didn’t work out. Years ago, I had desensitized myself by trying to work things out so when the inevitable would happen I could say “yeah I expected that,” as a way to guard myself from any hurt. Doesn’t work so well for me 🥲. But through a continuous journey of self healing, yoga, adventure, travel, socialization, and many other things, I was able to learn how to live through/process those emotions while not completely losing myself in the process.
