"What gave you joy today?"
This was a question posed to me by my partner-in-crime who just wanted to hear some good news, after experiencing days/weeks of stress, due to her role as the main caregiver of her elderly family. Something I can relate very much to.
And I found that question had rendered me speechless.
Don't get me wrong, I had an enjoyable day yesterday as I was treated to a zoom lunch with a dear friend. I had a difficult session after but all things considered, it sorta balanced out.
But I found myself feeling really bleh today. I'm just thinking I need to take into consideration mental health days off. My to-do list seems never-ending. And it doesn't help that I have someone at home who constantly complains, points fingers and finds fault while I am already trying my best to manage the household.
I realize I get so triggered. I need to detach myself more and just ignore these idiotic/unhelpful comments that really spoil my mood. I need to tune out from this negativity that really sucks the life out of me and to declutter my chaotic and overstretched mind.
Lord help me, please. I really need quality rest. And please take away these darn chest pains, muscle aches and migraines that plague me.
