This may seem corny, and/or maybe many people aren't familiar with the 2000's music group called S Club 7, but I loved their show back in the day. For some reason, they randomly popped in my head on my way home from work tonight. So I searched them on YouTube to see if I remembered any of the songs and this was the shows theme song. I did remember it(mostly) but I didn't expect it to hit the way it did when I listened to it. It was EXACTLY what I needed. And sure, it's a cheesy early 2000's pop song, and on the surface may not seem like it's anything special, but with the day I've had, every lyric spoke what I NEEDED to hear. This whole day - this whole week - hell, the past 6 months - have been some of the hardest times in my life for so many reasons. I could list all the things I have mounted on my plate right now, but the long and short of it is that I have so much pressure on me from so many people, and it is finally catching up to me and I feel like I'm on the verge of a mental breakdown. And I do not think of myself as a mentally weak person. After 15 years with my soon-to-be-ex-husband, and the mental and emotional abuse I endured and learned how to cope with, I have had to learn to rise above and live with extreme stress. But this, today, I have just been beaten and feel so beyond defeated. This song triggered simultaneously the tears I needed to get out and new resolve to rise above. I played it on repeat the whole way home, dancing, smiling, and sobbing uncontrollably all at once. When I got home, I laid down in the driveway and cried at the stars for a good 10 minutes before coming inside. Came in, and hugged on the dogs as they comforted me while I continued to cry. Writing this has finally gotten me to calm down some to where I'm no longer crying but just shaking. I will get through this. It won't be easy by any stretch of the imagination. But I won't let my circumstances break me. I will prevail.
