During the last twenty months a lot of things have happened in my life detail about most is of no importance here in FCN and therefore I am not going to share it.
I will share the following. Due to COVID I was forced to isolate at home for months. The mental health implication of that was enormous. The challenge of staying stable and staying focused was no child's play. Of course, this does not make it any easier when news of friends and family dying from covid keeps pouring in. And we are all isolated. During the third wave of COVID, in nine days, I lost exactly seventeen people who meant something to me that was close to me for whom I cared and also worked with. Family members, friends and colleagues. Never before in my entire life have I been to so many funerals in person or online as in the past few months.
It made me realize about how many trifles one fights and argues in real life but also online. The amount of energy we waste on things that are unimportant.
Life is far too short to waste time on the things that do us no good. Many wonder why I distance myself from drama and senseless childish online fighting the above storie is the reason. If something does not suit me, I simply walk away and channel the frustration and anger in more positive directions and focus my attention on what brings me peace, joy and happiness.
I tell myself I do not have to fight with others I do not have to waste my energy on negative things and I may say no to those who try to get me involved in their dramas and online fights. I may choose to put my mental health and happiness first and I do not have to feel guilty about it. I may choose to focus on what is good and positive rather than wasting time on trivia.
At the end of the day, the truth is that we all make mistakes we all do things we should not we all hurt someone just like someone hurts us. And the most wonderful of all even then the sun still shines for all of us.
Life is short how short I have learn in the last twenty months walk away from the things which disturbs your peace without taking revenge, fighting, gossiping and bad mouthing and focusing on the things which brings you peace and makes you happy.
