I confess, these days I find myself taking a lot of deep breaths,
and am plagued with frequent bouts of an inability to focus.
Normally Susan is such a self-reliant, independent girl,
why now do I catch myself checking and double checking every step?
Alternating between exhilaration and anxiety over my upcoming Bahamas trip,
while simultaneously trying to sidestep life’s landmines.
It feels like I am riding a roller coaster of emotions,
with a stomach full of both bees and butterflies.
The past tells me that by putting one foot in front of the other, I’ll stay the course,
that and a whole lot of deep breaths.
