Happy holiday


Tomorrow is a big day. A holiday. Good vibes, friend, family and good food is my holiday. This time, the holiday has a different color. I used to call or text my favorite people in the world during the holidays. People who I don’t get to talk on regular basis but are close in heart. I tried doing it today- but I just couldn’t. Who wants to get a “happy holiday” now. I am not sure I am.

Easier


One step and at time. It easier to stay in bed, to tell myself I am not in the mood or not feeling better. The current situation allows us to feel like it is ok to not be ok. Life is not only what we know and remember, it is not only “going outside”- It is also working with the unknown even if it is easier to do anything else but that.

Best gift


She has a big head. She was like that since she was born. With that big head comes big personality. She is younger, kinder and smarter. The gift I wanted from my parents arrived when I was 14 and that was the best gift I could ever ask for. I look up to her, she is truly something special. Now she is coming home from the army after three weeks, she misses us and we miss her but, there is a but, even though she is my favorite person in the world. I am scared.

Free trap


Another free consulting call with an attorney. His expertise: Risk management. He warned me at the beginning of the call “I am a pessimist, make sure you don’t take it personally”. He was decisive and very pessimist- and I did take it personally. I am human.  After 60 min call I was laughing, I have been here before. Falling into the free trap. I am done until I will be strong enough. Note to self

Look the same

The internet is exploding from masks pictures. Yes, it is a life saver- I know. Maybe the people who are trying to make fashionable masks are right, maybe they already understood what I refuse to acknowledge. This new area where you will make sure to be covered before leaving your house- is hard to digest. Now we will all look the same and who wants that?! Not only we ran away from people instead of walking towards them, now you will be able to see the world but he will not be able to see you- not all of you.

keep on walking

It feels so good to be needed. So good to be asked. Especially when you know the answer. She called me asking for help. She was one of the top students in my class, I wasn’t. She made the best final project while I wasn’t even close. I had one thing that no one else had, shiny eyes as my teacher used to say. I was slow, picky, perfectionist with endless enthusiasm. l still am. Now I just need to keep on walking. Even though sometimes I not sure where to.

We laughed

I had a problem with my phone and computer so I packed my bag and entered my car wearing gloves and a mask. It was a half problem and a half excuse. I went to my favorite brother. The one who is always willing to help. I know I am suppose to say I love all three of them the same- but I not. I love him the most. He managed to fix it, we laughed and I was so happy. Suddenly, it is not something you take for granted. I never did but still, it has a different feeling now and I guess that feeling will never go away.
