It’s been a crazy journey since my last post. 6 months into the new year and I still feel like a trauma victim. The slightest thing on “the topic” brings a riduclous emotional response. Believe it or not, Twitter has been a sort of lifeline for me during the week. I have my wonderful new church on Sunday mornings. I feel like a scale that keeps getting heavy boxes dropped on it and consequently having it’s accuracy thrown out. It’s Sunday morning church that resets the scale!! During the week, however, Twitter and the wonderful words of wisdom and encouragement from some of the people I follow help to get me through the bumps throughout the week!
For example, I heard about another two dear friends who have officially made the “ruined by _____” list. Everytime I hear of another casualty, it feels like a blow to the gut. I spiralled instantly. As I lay in my bed and the momentary outpour of emotion passed, I tried to calm myself enough to sleep by looking at Twitter via my phone. A simple distraction before setting my alarm and officially trying to sleep. Here are few of the tweets that I saw that somehow helped me regain some equilibrium.

drtonyevans There is a vast difference between learning from the past and living in it.
Sometimes, I’m still too emotionally worn out to think clearly for myself or to read the His love letter to me (Bible) with any clarity. In those moments, God’s Faithful Ministers help me out on Twitter.
So this is me popping my head up for a moment and saying “Hi!”. I’m still here.
