Human after all ...
The husband took me out for the day, and declared that today would be dedicated to me. I have to be honest, it took me by surprise. This sweet man has been helping me with everything, from the simplest of tasks to the more personal ones, like taking a shower. I’ve felt like a burden to him lately, an assumption that I’m making. I’ve always been self sufficient / self reliant, and lately I haven't been feeling the greatest. He decided that I needed to get out of the house, and we’d go anywhere I wanted. I opted for simple things, like eating breakfast at a little vegan cafe in Long Beach, and getting tea at a coffee house, and walking around Pine Ave. just for some sunshine. I got my mangled septum ring replaced, and got some vegan pie to go. It was a welcomed change of pace, I’d only been getting out to walk around the block lately.
What was different today, is that I actually had human interaction. Normally, I avoid interactions with other people because of my line of work and empath abilities (I end up drained), but not today. I welcomed it, and I enjoyed it. Fuck, it felt great to get some fresh air, and see new faces. I love my family for everything they have done but, this was different for me. For a moment I had forgotten my pain, both physical and emotional. For a moment, I remembered who I am. For a moment, I felt human again.
