GOOD MORNING. I held onto this photo for months. I looked at it every few days. This photo made me so happy because it reminded me of how happy I was that day. Taken by my beautiful, inspiring friend who will tell you better than I, that LIFE IS FOR LIVING. I want to share this photo now because what I see is a baby duck ( thanks @jessiej 😂) but someone trying so hard to find her strength, even though she thought it was gone. I lost every part of me a few years ago and I truly never thought I’d be ok again. Not physically not mentally and not spiritually. Ive been sad. I don’t need to go into detail, but if you ARE SAD.. if you are lonely or isolated ( or isolating ) .. if you feel like you don’t have the energy to get out of bed, the energy to make your bed or god forbid leave the house ( I did not leave my house for longer than anyone would know ) Please listen to me when I say, it doesn’t matter who you are, life will throw everything at you, that’s life. I could sit and hide under the blankets for another 3 years just like I have. Do not be hard on yourself. Do not be angry that you are not feeling yourself. You are not lazy. You are tired. The world IS HARD. But THINKING won’t get you out of it.. living will. I feel so sad that i have been so sad for so long. But It DOES GET BETTER and man does that make happiness feel magic. This photo was taken by someone I adore, who inspires me and who helped me wake up. Not by doing anything, just by calling me and checking in every day. Waiting for me to find my self and my life again. Holding space. Please hold space for people who are struggling, in any way at all. Thanks ok. This is very long now and more than I expected to say.. I started this post to tell you to watch @halloweenmovie and somehow we ended up here. STILL WATCH HALLOWEEN KILLS! But also watch out for your mates. Specially the “strong” ones.
