18. Fear is hard.
Mon Apr 12, 2021, 01:52 PM
Apr 2021

I feel like I’m on an adrenaline drip these days. It’s always something. Much of it is real life situation - like being unemployed and facing some major, major home repair issues.

I wish I could run away. Add COVID to life issues (for all of us) and no wonder we are all about to crumble.

Keep putting one foot in front of the other. One step at a time. Sit down and breathe when you need to, but always get back up.
