Getting to Know Myself Through Seattle

Well, check that off a major bucket list! 1) Come on, it's Seattle! 2) Getting to know yourself, while in Seattle. Wait! Let me say it again, GETTING TO KNOW YOURSELF, while in the Great Seattle! Let me remind you, I'm a native to the beautiful "Colorful Colorado." Never have I come across such overwhelming feeling of emotion for beauty, morbid beauty, (I'll explain later), self love, career, past faults and growth in so many aspects of my life. I was so angry going to Seattle, I didn't want to go.Being angry to go to the one place you have dreamed of was so confusing. I didn't care to go through all of the emotions of all of the loss I had experienced in the past year and all of the possible loss I could face in the future. I was lost being in Seattle, figuratively and literally. I didn't become okay with the process until the last day but I did it. I made it through that part of the process of the many emotions (anger, numbness, disappoint in others and myself, love, learning to love again, sadness, disgust, trust and joy.)My best friend and I laughed and talked for hours before she took me to the airport. She had never hugged me like she did and I was so thankful she did because I knew she loved me and cared about what I was going through and getting ready to face. I felt bad she couldn't come with me but in all honesty, this is something I had to do for me. She understood me. Here goes nothing.When I finally arrived, after we drove to the airport, I was numb. I sat at the airport, numb. Got on the plain and was still unsure, scared. My mind was running but still. Landed and followed the signs to get to my Lyft. I sat in the back seat with a couple in silence.  Arrived at the Air BNB, numb. Numb, scared, lost and now the time is here. No turning back now.  I couldn't believe I was doing this and by myself none the less. Goodnight Seattle!
