1- Buying the huge watermelons and waiting too long to cut them open.

2- Waiting until the literal last minute to put gas in my car.

3- Waiting until my children are all asleep, so I can start doing either major clean-ups or finally watch some tv. Then regret it in the morning.

Arrived to my destination. Small Parking lot is full. I see a car about to pull out. I put in my left signal waiting. There is a man standing in the middle of the street talking to another man inside another car. As the parked car already pulled out start to drive off, the man talking jump in his car, turns it on, puts on the signal, rolled down the window, stick half his body out and yells at me while frowning and waiving his full arm with a pointing finger "I am parking there!!!"

I looked at him of course, he called my attention with all of that circus. I turn around and started waiting for another spot. He finally came out of his car, I rolled down my window and said "I hope your day brightens up while smiling at him".

You are on the highway coming close to a highway entrance:

1- Change lanes or

2- Speed up or

3- Slow down.

But stop fucking parallel-driving to someone attempting to merge into the highway at highway speed.

... and if it hasn't yet, you probably haven't gone deep enough. There is a rage that lives beneath survival. A rage that builds when you realize how much of your life was shaped by someone else's dysfunction. How much of your personality is a byproduct of having to survive chaos. How many of your choices were never really choices at all, just coping mechanisms disguised as decisions. And when you finally see it when you feel it fully, it's not pretty. But it's necessary. Because anger is clarity. Anger is boundaries forming in real time. Anger is the nervous system screaming, "I'm not safe yet." Let yourself feel it. It's not the end of healing. Sometimes, it's the beginning.
