It's been a tough day. Work was difficult, I've been in a hormonal funk, I've just felt all out of sorts. To be honest, I feel a little adrift and rudderless, but this all feels temporary, just a glitch in my programming, as it were. When I search my heart and my head, it all says, "This too shall pass. Ride it out, and you'll be back to your old self very soon."
If anything, it feels like I'm in a holding pattern, waiting. I know the whys, and I'm okay with them. I don't want to bore you with the dreary details - aside from the fact that I hate to burden you, it would take up more energy than I have right now. I think Mercury must be in retrograde right now - it sure feels like it. The only thing that comforts me is this feeling that spiritually I am centred in the right place. I feel a bit blue and down, but this too shall pass. I don't feel like writing right now, and that is a sickening feeling; it's like being ill. But again, I know it's temporary. I have it on good authority.
I want to thank you all for making May a month of lovely postings from so many of my friends. It's been immensely gratifying to see and read about what people are doing - I have seen lovely photos of nature, read great fic recs, seen lovely incremental good things happening to my friends. It has been a rather long month, but one that was made much happier by your presence. I hope when Monday rolls around I will still see so many friends here. I'm sorry I haven't commented on every posting, but it's been a happy problem - so many postings meant I couldn't keep up with them all. It's been fun reading about MISTI; lovely art has been created, and it's been a personally productive month. Thank you for all the good karma and encouragement; I need it now like never before.
I thought I'd leave you this Friday with a charming little pic that showed up on my Facebook feed yesterday. It reminded me of our little monster Sevvy when he was this age:
