Since one of my cats has been missing for almost 9months now, I have been checking a shelter site periodically. A few days ago I found a cat that looked very similar to my Chai Chai. I studied the picture closely to pin point all of the markings, and it pretty much matched, so much so that I thought it just might be my cat. I brought a cage and drove to the shelter in the hopes of bringing my long lost friend home, but to my dissapointment, it wasn't him. I was so dissapointed in fact, that I had tears well up in my eyes as I walked out of the building and decided to do something I had given up 4 months ago-shopping for stylish clothes as therapy.
My thoughts of Chai Chai dissapated, as I concentrated on searching for clothes that would fufill a fantasy. This fantasy I had dreamed up as a dilusion to my sadness. I would wear a beautiful outfit out to the city on a day that my family and I would spend together. I would feel beautiful, accepted, and happy in my perfect clothes. All of my problems would dissapear on this outing, and I would have a break from my reality.
This reality is that my Chai Chai is still missing, and I have no idea what happened to him. Is he alright? Is he in a home with another family, or is he on his own? Is he somewhere outside stuggling to survive? Is he dead?
Another part of my realty I have been attempting to avoid is completing my “homework”. I have been feeling a bit overwhelmed about getting it all done, because it took me a full day to write out one of the four blogs for this assignment. Shopping was a temporary distraction not only from missing my cat, but to the work that still needs to be done.
And why did I choose something so vain as a distraction? Well that all comes down to me avoiding what deep down needs to be written about. Vanity is a shallow cover up for my own lack of acceptance and happiness. I cannot reach this acceptance if I only attempt to fake it by dressing nice and getting approval from others. This lack of acceptance I believe has bubbled up from me not completing my work. I am overwhelmed and have given up on myself by using distractions with other things. Finding Chai Chai would bring me the hapiness I have been lacking. Out of fear of failure I have given up on my homework, but only temporarily. I know what must be done, and I know I will eventually do it. I have only created a time loop for myself, extending the time it takes to clear things up and progress.
I forgive myself for accepting and allowing myself to give up on myself.

When I am feeling overwhelmed and am tempted to use any means of distraction to get my mind off of my current situation, such as missing a loved one or the need to get work done, I will bring myself back here, breathe and stop the mind. I will not follow the thoughts that my work cannot be done, but I will push through and do what I have to do to get it done. When I am missing my cat, I will stop, breath and not follow my thoughts of 'what if' and 'how much better it would be if he were with us'. I will no longer allow distractions, such as using shopping for clothes, as an escape from my issues, but instead will take the time to face myself, investigate my feelings and work them out through writing self forgiveness. When I do want to shop for clothes, I will ask myself if I am desiring to distract myself by shopping or if I need to shop for for practical purposes.
I will not allow myself to be dependant on others for my happiness and love. When I feel like I need acceptance and approval or like I need to be dressed stylishly to feel accepted, pretty and happy, I will stop following my thougths, bring myself here as breath, and remember that acceptance, beauty and happiness is within and as me already, as life.
