Pandora’s box or a can of worms. That’s the problem with opening either, you have to deal with what’s inside. The three days of blogs took its toll, Tuesday in particular was tough, there was an overwhelming sadness, close to tears over silly things, emotions were near the surface. The good thing is that IContinue reading “Protection mechanism”

Connection. I mentioned in my last blog, how can I feel connected when I’m not connected to self? Humans need connection – fact. I mentioned about being chipped away at, the past months have chipped away at our souls. Babies die without love and connection, they are pure souls. As adults, we can rationalise butContinue reading “Connection”

Identity. I keep hearing and seeing this word, I think it’s something to look at. My identity, it’s what I do, what I say, what I think, what I think other people think, what other people say, what society says, what society expects, what I believe, what I’ve experienced, what I think I should be/do/become,Continue reading “Identity”

Momentum. Now the first step has been taken to resume how do I start to build momentum? I guess it’s like any sort of training/routine/habit, it will take commitment to make it the norm again. I keep thinking back to when I was making notes and capruring ideas months ago, there’s a part of meContinue reading “Momentum”

The Dragonfly. Wow, this has been an interesting six months. So much has changed since my sadness post. It was an appropriate pause and sadness has been an ongoing theme throughout. Grief and loss linked to quite a few situations. It’s easier to be angry and frustrated but they’re not productive. I’ve gone through aContinue reading “The Dragonfly”

Sadness. I push it down. I’m an expert on avoidance. I think I’m coping with a situation but I’m actually avoiding it. Too painful for my soul to endure. Or is it? The universe gives us what it thinks we can endure. It’s an opportunity, like a mountain is. Avoid the mountain or run upContinue reading “Sadness”

Confrontation. I’ve realised that I avoid it. Well, I always knew that, so now what? It seems that the confrontationalists love this current scenario, and the ‘system’ supports it. I’m not a fan of fear or being told what to do. This is where we’re at. Control. I’m even doubting my ability to make decisions.Continue reading “Confrontation”

I wrote this at the start of the month as more of an idea than a reflection. But, given what’s been going on over the last few weeks it’s semi relevant now. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to simulate well enough that you experienced the same feelings….. How far away are we fromContinue reading “Virtual Reality”

Responsibility. Mmm, this one’s a bit fresh but I’ll go with it…. So, the scenario is that I’m out running on some trails after being couped up all day. Loads of space and surrounded by nature. Perfect, right? Until I have a run in with a 1.5m preacher. I’m still pissed off by it andContinue reading “Responsibility”

Adapt. The more I read and the more I talk to people, I realise this is what we have to do to survive life. Things have happened in the past few weeks that have stopped us doing our ‘norm’. I have seen some great ways of how people are being creative and adapting, how businessesContinue reading “Adapt”
