Last night I went out. While this doesn't sound very out of the ordinary, it was quite. I went to an art show full of people I rarely see now and then to a house warming party full of people that I go out of my way to avoid. One would ask, "Why? Why would you do that?" After a year of avoiding one person I personally wronged and a couple I had major falling outs with a while back, I went to face my past.
I guess I don't really have much to say about it aside from me being glad that I saw there, however painful and weird it was. I got some good advice from my friend, Jonny, about running into people that you don't want to see. He said, "Say hello. You don't have to get into it right there, but say, 'Its really good to see you, we should talk some time. '"
I knew it was coming before I went, so I was kind of prepared.
Ultimately it was kind of painful and cathartic. And very much needed.
My boyfriend was there, he knew it was a big deal for me even though he played it down. He held my hand, shook others' and held me close. It was good to have him there. I have to say- he's pretty amazing.
