It all may have something to do with a friend announcing she was pregnant, an unexpected challenge for her at this time in her life. Hard to hear but I do get it. I sympathized with her and showed my support and congratulations but then the conversation in the room went to "everybody's getting pregnant right now" and "there's definitely a baby boom going on." I felt like I was doing well keeping my own feelings at bay in the moment but I think the after comments got stuck echoing in my head as I left. I woke up just wanting to say to somebody, "well... not everybody."
So I'll just say it to my blog :)
Nope, not every body.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the comments echoing in your head - sometimes the echo is worse than the original.
Prayers that your day got better!
Thank you! The cloud lifted the next day, gotta keep hoping with some prayer and perspective :)
