@Jynx I do pray for forgiveness, but I don’t really focus on forgiveness regarding SA. I do acknowledge as humans we are imperfect and make mistakes, it’s just in our nature. I tend to obsess more over may unworthy and sinful from trauma. Maybe it’s not about shifting the narrative away from being sinful, because humans make mistakes all the time. Maybe it’s about shifting the focus away from the “I am unworthy and shameful” narrative.

I have graduation tomorrow, and the weather is terrible. I hope they have air con

Oh yeah, congrats again @creative_writer! Have a fab day hun!! And aye, that might be a helpful shift for sure! Can discuss more when I'm back on if you like, up to you! Catch you next week 😊🫂

[rav3n]

hey there @creative_writer how's your week been? just read that you had your graduation recently (woohoooo congrats!!!) how'd that go? 😊

[creative_writer]

@Jynx and @rav3n sorry for the late response, I was away for a bit and couldn’t respond. My dad had holidays so I spent some time with my family. Graduation was good but the weather was awful, I was a bit unwell as a result. I’m just currently bouncing back from illness. I hope you both have been well 💖

[Jynx]

Ahaha @creative_writer no dramas at all, as we have also been away!! How have you been over the last week or so? Sorry to hear you've been unwell, hope it's all cleared up now? 

[creative_writer]

@Jynx I managed to catch a pesky bug while away. The bug that makes you cough and causes a fever. My whole family is sick. I am hoping it clears up soon for us all, the coughing spells are exhausting. On the plus side, I did enjoy my time away and saw lots of natural beauty💖. It was a good distraction and we hadn’t been on holidays for a while. Though I stupidly left one of my meds at home, but I got by until I crashed at the end of the trip.

How has your time away been for you?

Hey @creative_writer  🙂

Where did you go? I mean, overseas? Beach side? Country?

[Jynx]

@creative_writer oh noooo that's nasty!! Yeah keeps one up at night, the coughing, so awful! May your recovery be swift!! 

Oooh lush, yeah I wanna know where you went too! You may have told me but I definitely forgot haha

My time off was lovely!! Much wholesome time with partners, a little bit of mischief, and some very nice days of doing very little at all 😌

@tyme and @Jynx I was overseas in East Asia. I didn’t mention it earlier before on the forums. I think we picked up the bug from there

@Jynx sounds like a lovely holiday. Sometimes you just need to spend time with loved ones.

@tyme did you get up to much?

[tyme]

Wish you quick recovery @creative_writer . Hope the trip was okay besides the bug...

As for me, spent a lot of time in the pool and at parks with the kids. I'm all parked out.... I have to say, there are heaps of really cool parks around where I live, so at least the kids were out most of the day. I take the kids out so my sis can clean the house, cook and rest.
