A friend of mine texted me last night.
She said she was very tired of it all, tired of the struggles, the loneliness, tired of the loss.
These are all feelings that we fight. The fact that the pandemic drags on and on, that all we hear is people fighting, all we see is death...weighs us down.
We have much fewer opportunities to "recharge our batteries" so we just get run down.
I personally have lost a marriage, lost a job, been out of work for many months, lost some friends...
This year sucks.
I feel alone and isolated. Stuck in desolation. And all I can focus on is what I have lost. Focus on what I cannot have.
I know many if not most of you are feeling these things to some degree.
You are not alone.
