I pretty much effed off this week and did not begin Week 3. I continued with my morning pages, yet couldn't seem to bring myself to start the next week. And maybe it's for the best that I spent more time on recovering a sense of identity; Through my pages, I noticed lot of stuff coming up for me in how I identify myself and relate to others. I suppose I'm redefining myself now that I am no longer a wife. For better or worse (all pun intended), I found myself very defined as "Mrs. Gadget". That was an identity I knew how to wear and wore it well.
Now I'm in the process of redefining and rebuilding. The interesting thing about this process is that it's nothing new, it's the drawing out of the woman I've always been. It's just time to let her come out and stand on her own two feet.
But oh, how I miss those vermillion walls...
