I Feel Violated and It's OK

So, without going into a lot of detail, there was a break in at the Rinaldi home recently.

I left the house to meet a friend for lunch and all the bells, whistles and red flags were going off, telling me to just cancel and stay home. I ignored them.

While enjoying my lunch, someone entered my home through the front door, triggering the alarm, and made it upstairs triggering the motion detector there.

We are literally a block and a half or so from the police department and they arrived within 10 minutes of the alarm going off.

I’m glad I wasn’t home and yet part of me feels if I had been this would not have happened.

So there I was the next day, feeling violated and tired. I’d slept very little that night and woke from several nightmares where someone was in the house.

I know how to resolve my feelings and how to change my thoughts. And I was still having trouble with this. My husband and I and our pets are OK and nothing missing was irreplaceable.

I was angry, scared, frustrated, felt violated and wanted to lash out about how this was not right. I knew tomorrow would be better and I knew I had a lesson here. But for that moment, I wallowed — and it was OK.

    It’s good that you are safe. It sounds like you shaken, but it sounds like things worked out reasonably ok.

    Be well, and take care~

    Sorry you had to go through this. My husband asked me once why psychics don’t know when these things will happen. My response was that “sometimes we do, others we don’t. But if we knew every little thing that would happen, we wouldn’t learn anything.” I am glad everyone is safe. ~Char Spicer (from Twitter)

    Being violated is a horrible feeling @Live_Joy_Fully! I sincerely hope that you and you loved ones are safe.

    My coop housing community is using unlawful tactics for intimation to silence the truth and I hate that my privacy is compromised. As a single parent, I feel unsafe but I am slowly regaining trust.
