Dance! I put on some music and move the grief out of the body so I can get down to taking care of my work. I am grateful for my health and for my attitude. I have vowed to never stay down for long, and I am succeeding.
Cook! Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms, Butternut squash with apples, and I made guocamole for tomorrow lunch. Juiced veggies twice today. Feeling great!
Listen to Mom's problems, then Dad's problems. Feels like concrete on my heart. Dance around the apartment and come home to myself: joy, joy, joy.
What do you do for getting rid of the blues? Can you do a little something every day to keep yourself afloat?
Don't get me wrong I still obsess about my Mom's health and well being but since I can't move into the nursing home (not that I'd want to) I have no choice but to let it go and its been good for me.
Finding something you have some control over will help your well being. When people have no control over any aspect of their lives, they lose hope and get depressed.
