Giving Up Control of Our Shared Life

I’m perpetually exhausted these days. School and work require so much flexibility in my time that almost every other area of my life is taking the hit.

I was worried almost this entire year, honestly, because I have solely been the glue to hold KP’s and my shared life together for the last ten years. Especially cuz his last job had him traveling almost every other week.

But his new job is totally local, and he has just naturally fallen into picking up all the slack I’ve had to let go of to focus on myself.

I honesty didn’t believe that our roles would ever change.

But I’m so glad that all it took was for me to completely let go of my illusion of control.

KP’s doing great.

This is honestly the first time we both look at our life together and collectively say, “We’re finally home.”
