Safety Issues Stirred
This morning my hubby went to get breakfast for us after a long day filled with festivities and fun. When he came back, he informed me that his car had been broken into during the night. The lock had been jimmied and it seemed they had rifled through, but as far as we could tell, they didnt take anything.
It makes me so uneasy! I am walking around the house looking at our doors differently…looking at windows to see if you might be able to break in. Its that huge uncertainty! It just comes with being alive.
I don’t really even care about our stuff. I care about my own safety and the safety of my family. I have been mugged before, and it took me on a weight gaining, anxiety filled roller coaster for a good 7 years.
Some tricks I have learned from that is to initially talk about the incident, but don’t obsess about it. At some point I just have to let go and live.
I am sure for a short bit of time I will be on alert. But I am going to keep breathing and most of all, being thankful that no one was hurt. And reality, I don’t think anything was taking…except for needing to fix the car door now. But that can easily enough happen.
Thanks for listening,
Rae
That is terrible! One of those things you cannot control and that is what is so scary about it…it is so random and unpredictable…but be strong…pray for strength and peace….
Hope you have a better day…=)
I’ve just seen this blog entry. I must have missed it.
Poor you. I now how horrid it must feel. Make sure your house is secure and if you would feel better to have extra locks, then fit them.
However, don’t resort to food to comfort yourself. We all do this, but it won’t help. Keep strong and keep positive.
Take care
