Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

Horrible. Bloody horrible day. Tired of the hatred. Tired of the course of destruction that I am on.

was here considering the end. Planning it. D comes in upset, says that she thought of something scary. Eventually managed to get her to tell me…. Said that she thought that someone would break in and shoot me with a gun and she would be all alone.
this is not the first time that I have sat considering the end and my d has come in and said something like this.
it should make me reconsider things. But it doesn’t. It makes me want the end even more. Cause I am such a terrible person. A horrible mum. She deserves better. And I can’t give that to her.

Re: My Mosaic

Oh my @Bow

You sound entirely overwhelmed at the moment.
You must be in such excruciating pain.
Life is really hard.
The world seems such a cruel, cold place lately.
We’re all here with no real idea what we should be doing and instead of loving and encouraging one another as we try to navigate this crazy life, we spit hate, condemn and hurt..

Wherever you are, know that I’m sending you warm, waves of love and care. You are worthy and you are absolutely good enough.
The first post in this thread says

‘So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent’

I find this so comforting. You’re lost at the moment. All of these messes make for a beautiful work of art.

Both the light and the dark serve us.
we need adversity to truly appreciate the bliss.
Be kind to yourself. Nurture you the way you would nurture your child. We’re all just trying to figure it out.
