SLOWLY

Sometimes we get anxious about things pretty easily, especially it is something very interesting, e.g. fall in love. Oh c'mon who doesn't like to feel loved and having someone to lean on? Well the thing is one may feel a little withdrawn (although excited) if one has grown mushrooms for quite some time or just done experiencing a bad relationship.

Sometimes it even could be accepting the relationship too soon (The brain and the heart just not synchronized? YA, WHY NOT?). It feels very much like opening the "snake nut can" or "snake potato chips can" or "snake candy can" (whatever you call it for as long as it fits the concept of "sudden shock" when you open it, that'll do). And the person will go into sudden blank state of mind then followed with a full head of "I can't bear with it" thoughts.

This happens due to an inner reflection: eh, you've put your head ahead of your heart ler. And the heart is actually going through some kind of talk with the head (some kind of negotiation huh).

I call it the phase of transition. Pardon me coz I am a SNAKE and I do go through ecdysis, psstt... psstt...(the snake tongue thingy) - to tear down the old in order to put on the new one.

And this period is giving us the time and space to make adjustment. We'll be surprised how our brain actually build this self-defense mechanism by changing our hormones and thinking. And we'd amazed how the heart is actually preparing us by making the effort to shift that room in it to let this person fit in.

Whatever it is, this phase needs time and patience. Take a little time to talk to ourselves while going through this beautiful thing. Don't get scared away or hold back (unless that's not the right person).

Breathe, Remember?

Relax, you'll be fine.
