Yesterday, I felt the shift. The first domino being tipped. People are waking up. While this is VERY SCARY, and I know there is worse coming, I believe there is a light at the end of a very long tunnel. Everything that has happened, or will happen, was meant to. The old ways are dying, and we will build a better system, but it’s going to take work. And a lot of time. But we’ll get there.
Completely different subject…
I was on Instagram yesterday, and I noticed that the woman in crisis I tried to assist the other day had posted a new story, so I watched it. Tell me why the story was her bragging about the views her suicidal posts had received? I thought maybe I was wrong in some way, and when I talked to Rick about it, he said I went into the situation with my whole entire heart, just wanting to help. Just like when you give a homeless person food or money, you don’t question what they’re doing with it. You give with your heart, and you move on. But then again, this morning, MORE BRAGGING. 1 MILLION VIEWS!
The woman messaged me thanking me. I went with my go to grace, and instead of calling her out, I chose to simply say, “There are people out there who care about you. I hope you’re okay.”
Then I let it go.
Yesterday, we ran around completing errands. Last night, we went to the movies. One of the perks of Rick’s last job was free movie tickets, any day, any time. There are two available a day. First come, first served. Rick texted the slack channel to ask if we could use the tickets, and everyone agreed it was cool, so we got free movie tickets.
We went to see Send Help with Rachel McAdams. Directed by Sam Raimi. We shared popcorn and an Arnold Palmer. Great, fun movie.
I wasn’t quite tired enough when we got home at ten, so we took a walk for a cigarette. Our neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful at night. After the walk, we watched an episode of Picard, and I ate my leftover ramen.
I managed to stay awake until midnight, and slept until after 7 this morning. I call that a win.
Today, I am going to package up my fantastic Poshmark sales- FIVE LOTS to one person, who previously purchased six very large lots from me right before Christmas. I am feeling enthused about even the smallest sale. It pushes me to want more, to do better.
I am sure once I am back on anti-depressants, the ADHD will be calmed, even if mildly. That will enable me to get back to doing what I love, and what I need to do.
We’re going to relax for the early part of the day, and then we’re headed to Santa Monica for our friend’s play. I am hope for a few minutes of wave viewing at the beach to cap off a really decent weekend.
