Musing: This Time

I’ve been struggling a lot this year – a lot more than many of the years that have come before – and, of course, I naturally turned to writing and this poured out.

It’s not what I hoped to be sharing this year – neither will I be able to do the posts I wanted to do. I had many blog ideas, but that will have to wait until next year. I need to recover first; that’s the most important thing here. 

After all, if you don’t put your oxygen mask on, you can’t do much and I have so many big dreams and hopes. They’ll just have to come later which is always hard for me, especially with my highly questionable self-worth!

However, I’m using them to carry me forward in the hardest moments. 

I’ll be sharing smaller posts and talking a little about what I wanted to do before my mental health went so downhill, but I’ll desperately be trying to be kind to myself. 

I hope you’ll offer yourself kindness too – no matter what’s happening in your life.

After all, it’s the holidays and we all deserve it; especially right now.
