It took me alot to come back here. This is despite all the pushes I got from people that check on my blog, the follows, the likes and mostly the good spirited people I cherish. I had a phone call and after asking me about my blog, I had to confess that I have not felt connected and not quite ready.
Today, I am in bed with a cup of water I wouldn’t finish (my relationship with water is very unhealthy), listening to music (and actually writing). I actually listen to music while studying (only light subjects, please).
It has been a very dark year. Death all around and nothing is normal again. Normal is now a luxury. At first, when the pandemic started, I was really hopeful it would be over in a month. Look at us hitting July very soon.
I suffered from panic attacks and not alot get it. Some thinking it is “foreign lifestyle”. Just by the way! Having to take a break off social. Having to avoid news platforms. I understand the need to report happenings around the world but death has been monotonous with social vices that is occuring like it is never attacked.
I worry if people are really taking the pamdemic serious again. Are people washing their hands anymore? Sanitizer matter anymore? Social distancing in markets and other crowded places? It took a pandemic to reset some things around us.
You also can take a break. I honestly needed it and took it as fast as I could. Take a breather off social media, watch comedy, laugh, make calls and throw it back to funny memories, read a happy book, listen to jolly music. Count your blessings, those days you asked God to save you from a situation and look at you out of it and almost not looking back to appreciate.
I just want to say seeing the end of 2020 would be a miracle for some of us. I know we have to be hopeful but this year, has not been the best.
Let us share love, be less judgemental because this life, no one is perfect and we are bound to make mistakes, do what makes you happy, smile, reflect and be true to/with yourself, love wholeheatedly for once and don’t forget to look up and enjoy the view of the sky not only when rain is pouring or scrowling up at the annoying shining sun on a hot afternoon.
How are you keeping sane?
I pray it comes to an end soonest
