Today I am feeling a bit flat and lacking motivation.

i've heard a lot about how our bodies remember things our minds don't, especially when it comes to trauma, grief, loss, etc. it's such a fascinating topic.

hope you're able to go easy on yourself, and take things one small step at a time. here for you 💙

@rav3n I am taking it slowly as I don't have the drive I had yesterday. I think it is also why I woke at 4am this morning

I had been focused on the things that are here and now for the last couple days and now it seems that this one thing from the past reaches forth and grabs me !

gosh the timing of it all, it sounds quite overwhelming!! also just wanted to let you know i've added a content/trigger warning spoiler tag to your post, just to keep the community safe and prevent others from being triggered. @Arbie_wun

how are you holding up now? do you feel like you're able to get back into the 'present' okay?

@rav3n Thank you for adding that, I honestly didn't think of the trigger possibilities.

I am feeling a little better at the moment, and I think some of that was the stress eating of chocolate chip ice cream!

no worries at all @Arbie_wun

haha 'stressed' backwards is 'dessert' so chocolate chip ice-cream sounds great (and now i'm craving something sweet)!! glad you're feeling a lil better, i know with grief it does come in waves, so it's totally okay to feel those feels - always here to chat or sit by your side 💙

@rav3n ...

So do I call you Huginn or Muninn? I know you probably won't get it,but it is to do with Norse Mythology.

so i did a quick search (didn't get to read deep into it) but i see the raven connection! so one represents memory and the other thought? then i'd i would say Muninn, i have a terrible memory but i do think a lot! @Arbie_wun does that make you Huginn then (again i know nothing of Norse Mythology)

@rav3n

Well given that my Native American zodiac is a RAVEN, I guess we have some kind of link there!

To help you out a bit Munnin is the interest, wonder and memory RAVEN, whereas Huginn in more about awareness, comprehension and perception.

ohh that's interesting! i searched up the native american zodiac dates, and i would technically come under owl... but i love ravens, crows and the mythical phoenix!!

@Arbie_wun thanks for explaining that... now i'm not sure if i'm Muninn anymore, i relate to both equally! how about you? are you more of Muninn or Huginn?

@rav3n I actually relate to them both... The thing is there are times where I am Munnin and times when I am Huginn.

I too like ravens, and I posted one of my favourite poems in here somewhere the other day! It is by Edgar Allan Poe of course and I am sure you know it. NEVERMORE
