I had a nice lunch with my friend at Las Margaritas in Kitsilano. ๐ฎ
Then he drove me to his place in Burnaby. He lives next to Central Park so we went for a walk. Saw goslings. ๐ค
Now on the SkyTrain heading home.
Another soul nourishing day.

Landed at YVR and am now on the train heading home.
Iโm so grateful that Iโm no longer anxious taking off and landing. Just inner peace and calm. Still surprised this is my new normal.
I am really enjoying acceptance.

Landed in Kelowna. That was a bumpy descent.
So apparently Iโm no longer an anxious person during takeoff and landing. Thank you, acceptance!

Okay, boarded the plane.
I initially could not fit my carryon in the overhead bin and turned bright red in embarrassment as I held up everyone behind me.
I brought my luggage back down and asked for help on the second try and it magically slid in the bin. Thanks to the male passengers behind me who offered to help then congratulated me.

Strangers (continued)
I then told her about Cates Park
And Lighthouse Park
At opposite ends
Of the North Shore.
Strangers bonding
Over a shared love
Of nature and trees.
Glimmers of light
Adding to our day.๐๐ณ๐

Strangers
Yesterday I had a lovely
Interaction with
A lady on the bus.
She is visiting from Germany
And was returning from
A day spent in a forest.
We bonded over our
Love of trees.
She asked for
A recommendation
For a place to visit.
I first mentioned Lynn Canyon
And she said thatโs
Where she spent the day
And it was wonderful.๐๐ณ๐

Iโve had a soul nourishing day. I really needed that.
I started my morning with art therapy. We were asked to draw our stress creature. Then we were told to draw our best self fighting stress.
My best self was a purple bee. ๐

Iโm grateful for Kristin Neffโs work on self-compassion. I would not be here without it.
๐๐๐
Iโm so happy to be able to comfort myself and recover quickly from being triggered.
Oh yeah, and fuck cancer!

I shared poems with a friend yesterday. In tears, she said I should publish them but she had 2 requests. One of just the poems + another of me reading them. She said I have a way of saying what sheโs feeling.
๐
This terrifies me but enough people have told me to publish my poems that I may figure it out someday. Writing poetry has been a *huge* outlet for me.
Another friend just texted me a poem + we agreed to figure out publishing together.

My relationship with food has changed. Iโm no longer craving crap + Iโm forgetting to eat. Who *am* I?! My stomach was growling so I put a gluten-free waffle in the toaster oven. I havenโt even eaten half since I keep thinking of things I need to do. Just sat back down to eat the rest.
Past me wouldโve been wolfing it down + looking for the next thing. Trying to fill a hole that cannot be filled with food.
Eating to live instead of living to eat.

I slept for 3.5 hours last night. Fucking anxiety.
Iโm going to the office tomorrow for the first time since Dec. 11 so anxiety showed up extra early. Thanks, anxiety!
Not sure how Iโm still upright. Iโve managed to accomplish quite a lot of adulting today despite the lack of sleep.
Iโve been extra compassionate with myself today. Why be miserable on top of exhausted? Iโm grateful to have my own back.

What am I up to?
Oh, just crying with gratitude after reading a kind text received from a work friend wishing me a Merry Xmas. ๐
She + I became a lot closer since my desk was moved next to hers earlier this year.
Iโm so grateful for her friendship.
๐๐๐๐๐
Small portion:
โYou have been through so much, yet you continue to rise with grace, kindness, and a beautiful heart. You are a bright light, Stacie, and the universe has so much more in store for you.โ

Michelle, I cannot believe it has been a year since you left us far too soon. ๐
Iโm grateful to have called you a friend even though it wasnโt nearly long enough. I miss you, my friend.

Loss
Some people leave an
Imprint on your soul.
Even when they're gone
They continue to be with you.
Indelible marks
That influence you.
Tattoos of them
Left in you.
Their light continues
To shine on.#Today #FuckCancer #Grief #GratefulBee #LoveAndLight #StacieBee #Poetry

I did something this week that was very difficult for me. I spoke to HR about my PTSD and panic attacks. They were very supportive. I brought up a colleagueโs name since she supported me during a panic attack at work last week. They were happy to hear I had support and asked if anyone else in the office knew. Iโm grateful to have people at work supporting me.
๐๐๐
I donโt know when my body will finally believe the trauma is over. Itโs truly exhausting.

Sending kindness out into the universe
๐๐๐
Life is sometimes difficult. You may not know what someone is going through, but you can always be kind. I need extra kindness right now. Thank you.

Friends, I can feel my โselfโ returning. I just sang a silly song to Frankenfoot as I did my dressing change. Iโm not quite โmeโ again but itโs nice to see glimpses every now and then.
๐๐๐
This has been my absolute *worst* year and I didnโt think Iโd ever feel like โmeโ again. Pain has robbed me of so much. But now I see the light and Iโm grateful.

RUTH | One Day Doc Fall 2023 | Best Cinematography Winner
I met Ruth while walking with a friend after work during the first year of the pandemic. She is a wonderful soul; a true light. She has given me food from the garden featured in the short film. I love the flowers and other decorations in the roundabouts. I hope to see her once I can walk.
