Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

Loneliness can be a bugger of thing. It comes and goes when it pleases. Even when the room is full, loneliness likes to rear its head.

I know it all too well. I sat with it for over a decade. It was like this inner void that made me so empty that it ate me up inside.

Yet with hope, I have to say for me, loneliness was a state of mind.

Ultimately, I don't really know what filled that void, but I just don't feel it anymore. I wonder what can fill your cup today @Bow

I can list so many things about you that I'm grateful for. Can you?

Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Oh @Bow . I hope you can find some compassion for yourself and know you are only human. We are often so hard on ourselves and the more we tell ourselves not to think a certain way, the more stuck we get.

You are the author or your narrative. What can you do to change your narrative? Why? Because you deserve the best narrative you can get.

You are a powerful writer.

Grrrrrrr another day wasted on the couch doing nothing. Feel so pathetic. I feel so angry and frustrated with myself. Grrrrr

Re: My Mosaic

It’s like a vicious cycle of feeling so tired and depleted that I have zero energy to do anything. Then I feel angry and frustrated with myself cause I’m not doing anything productive. Then I feel even more depressed. And round and round we go.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow sometimes all we can manage is to get through the day, and if we can do that in a sorta okay way, then that's all we can ask of ourselves. I know it's really frustrating, I've been going through a real slump in my energy right now too and I'm feeling very unproductive which makes me feel guilty. I've just been trying to focus on just trying to do some things, like I have no energy for the dishes but I can bring myself to cook meals, so I'm trying to tell myself that's a win.

Sorry you're going through this right now, at least you've been able to share here, that's not nothing

Thanks @Ru-bee

I’ve just picked D up from school and she was grumpy as heck cause I parked on the other side of the road… it was the only spot to park. She gave me attitude all the way home. Told her to quit with the attitude cause I’ve had a bad day too. But she kept going.

I was gonna go try and do something once I picked her up. But she’s made me cranky.

oh and I found out this arvo that my pdoc has left too. Like I seen him just last week and he didn’t even say anything. That will be the 5th pdoc in 2 yrs. £=€¥!

Just some quiet time now before I get back into excel 😩

Re: My Mosaic

Oh @Eve7 ….. when does your new kitchen build start?

i ended up going downstairs to do some more on my market display stand but the guy at bunnings gave me the wrong screws. So now I gotta go back there and get the right ones. Annoying.

so I’m back on the couch again.
