Today, I attended one of my daughter's school events and her father was there. Even though it's been a few years since our relationship ended, we parallel parent and rarely have direct contact. I've seen him in passing over the years, but we haven't been at the same event together in a long time. As I was getting ready to go, I expected I might feel anxious or emotionally activated. I thought I might spend time thinking about what to say, how it would feel, or whether old emotions would resurface. But none of that happened. I simply showed up, enjoyed watching my daughter, and stayed present in the moment. For me, that felt significant. There was a time when being in the same space would have brought up a lot emotionally. Today, it didn't. A few years ago, I don't think I would have believed I'd feel this neutral. Healing can be difficult to measure because it often happens so gradually. Sometimes we don't realize how much we've grown until we're in a situation that once would have completely activated us, and we notice that it doesn't anymore. Today was one of those moments for me. What's a moment you've had recently that made you realize you're further along in your healing than you thought? 🌿💛

I delayed responding to some text messages.

I was trying to think of a self-critical thought, and nothing came to mind for today.
