At my therapist's office this week, I realized that I hadn't once thought about The Nutcracker yet this season, and that was a huge revelation.
Today I've been listening to Christmas Pops on Sirius, and they've been playing a ton of Nutcracker music, and...I've LOVED it! I love it I love it I love it. I have even danced it in my brain. Happy memories, no tears. Maybe my DADA piece worked last year? Maybe therapy has helped? Maybe everything else in my life has just filled that part of my brain that couldn't handle it? No matter what the answer, it is a new beginning!
It took me 13 years to get here, but I finally made it.
Yay!
Yay!!! I'm so glad to hear that! Hope y'all are having a great holiday season!!!
