"Waiting for the shoe to drop" is something that will resonate with you if you're constantly on alert waiting for the next OCD thought to come, or you feel uneasy in safety, connection, and peace with your partner, feeling as though something could be ALWAYS BE WRONG. Waiting for the shoe to drop almost feels secretive, like something that's hidden because the behavior is usually so deeply ingrained in our unconscious. This unconscious behavior usually goes unnoticed, continuing to spiral us into obsessive thinking and rumination that takes us by surprise. When I learned about the concept of waiting for the shoe to drop, things made sense. I had so many "Aha-ha" moments that took me by surprise. I hope it'll equally create "aha" moments for you too as you continue your journey of awakening.
