Constant reminders needed
My cousin asked for my phone one day, and as I handed it to her, I said, “Don’t set no GPS up on there...I know how nosy you are”. I was teasing, but an applicable truth. See, I am going thru depression right now. Facing some long standing truths in an effort to save my children from my own childhood trauma. It’s a struggle worth seeing thru the storms, but sometimes I get super discouraged. My cousin, knowing how weak I feel and how my circumstances effect my outcome, is ACTUALLY nosy...AND LOVING and CARES, so she would very much GPS my phone, coming from that space. But about an hour after she had my phone, I got a very appropriate and reassuring message from “I am” and I just stared at it for a while. It brought me to tears once I realized how it got there. I’m managing my struggle right now. This app has given me certain constant reminders and reinforcements, that I may isolate from in the physical sense. I appreciate my cousin for downloading this app. I need it and she cares enough to make sure, I got it. Even in her own struggles, she can’t always be there for me, but she made sure she did what she could...and to know I mattered, really does matter to me. So “Thank you” to “I am” for being a positive piece to my process.
