Don't Break the Brass Chain

This morning, Mr. W said to me:
"Mike is the one. Don't go and break the brass chain."
English, please.

I have always been comfortable with hurt, neglect, abuse and addiction.
That felt comfortable to me because that was what I knew.

My life is very different now.
VERY different.
As I said earlier, my neuropsych told me that the discomfort I felt was due to change.
Change can be uncomfortable.
How sad is it that change from bad things to good things made for some discomfort.
But, it did.
And that's okay.

I have had a couple of moments in the last week when I was so exhausted physically and mentally that I would just start to cry. 
Mike would hold me.
Tell me to talk about all of my feelings.
Then we would discuss what, if anything, could be done with my emotions.

Don't break the brass chain.
Don't push away the amazing things in life to be comfortable.
