Wandering Thoughts (Mental Wellness)

6e42e027-85f3-4dbf-94dd-2861cc184ce5Good day everyone.

It has surely been a minute, but come to think of it it’s always a minute or something of late, with the way the times are rightnow the world is rather sad i guess what i really am trying to say is that what truly matters is that I always find my way back here my happy place, to writing and sharing, creating content and living my best life the best way i know how.  I am constantly reminded of how lucky and blessed I am to always be able to bring myself to write and share as I want to, deep down that realization itself is worth everything.

These past few weeks have been crazy so to speak, from COVD constantly scaring us something new everyday, to the fact that we do not no cure yet man oh man to life not being the same really, I choose to look at it this way, this has come with a lot of lessons, disciplining and its beauty too. I have realized things I didn’t even know about me, and how much my faith is built on the right path and how i  can deal with anything that comes my way(at least i believe so) because I have the best and supportive, prayerful and just divine close people, friends and family. If I had a bad day and I was about to loose it one of them always makes me realized it’s a bad day not a bad life, I am so grateful for them. Also most importantly it has helped me open up to love again in ways I didn’t think where possible and for that I am utterly grateful.

During these trying times were we feel like one day it’s  better like we can breath for a second while the other it’s just terrible, not only because of things that the world out there is projecting as what is going on in the world like COVID or BLM movements but also what we go through in our daily lives that no one projects out there, so we don’t know how to process them. Our mental wellness is highly underrated and that is something that we need to work on as individuals, communities and even institutions. This is about to be the new normal for a while maybe there might be better days or worse but we cant act like it isn’t happening, or it isn’t affecting our wellness one way or another, the realisation that this is happening is a step towards finding a new norm and so as we take care of our bodies our environment our neighbors our mother earth we need to remember to always take care of us, we seem to always forget  that is more important .

I filled in a survey on mental wellbeing session we had at work, and how the sharing and awareness has helped me out during these times, and i didnt know the impact of reading the weekly volumes had on me until i expressed myself filling in that survey. I realised we might take it rather lightly but it may be something as little as get enough sleep, talk to your beloved ones, when in duress talk to someone, pray about it, eat well and healthy, exercise, connect with people you hold dear, do something you enjoy, like let’s say read a book, draw, paint, and the like.

I could go on and on and the truth is in a way we are all different individuals and this is a blessing in itself, we all deal with things very differently and knowing that there are things that we could do to help the next person’s mental state that begin with us taking care of our mental state as well is a bonus and a blessing in itself.
