I just had a phone call. Yet another died. Many more deaths are to come. I don’t expect any more this year but well it is part of life. I am a bit sad actually. I was super tired today. I am taking care of the dog of my mothers. We went on a walk this morning and afterwards I went back to bed. I didn’t sleep anymore and the headache is persistent.

I reacted pretty calmly towards my mothers about the death of a family member. I talked about the dog and how she likes apples. I tried to cheer my mothers up by telling them to wear colourful clothes and encourage the teams they are going to watch during the Olympic Games.

I have a full day with a lot of plans and all I want to do is lie on the sofa. Somehow when I am this tired I feel the need for reflection and start writing my blog.

I wonder how you are doing. I hope you are doing okay. Everyone has a full range of emotions in their life. Mindfulness and writing and talking helps me navigate those emotions.

I hope you are doing well wherever you are and until next time! X
