Early morning, lying in bed, mind started going. Haven't fully accepted the huge changes in my life, committing to my SO, retiring, moving...I miss my friends. Sometimes I miss suburban living with food delivery, grocery store a couple blocks...my new life, and it us pretty, it's 10.2 miles to the nearest store. I.5 hours to a mall. So I woke up questioning myself, which I now understand is a trigger for me to use wine to turn off the brain. It's hard not to feel stuck. I could leave, but it would take all I have to move again and start over.
I need to hang on to one day at a time, get back to thengym and plan for when the weather gets warm again so I can get outside more..
Thank you.
Moving from a city to a place 10.2 miles to the nearest store is a rare blessing, in my view.
Our lives, our society, our world has lost touch with the simple wisdom of nature. We're out of place in cities. Overwhelmed and assaulted by an onslaught of illusion we begin to interpret as being more 'real' than it ever can be.
Maybe this is a fantastic opportunity for you to rediscover the ancient voice of the earth. Slow, observant walks in the woods are an incredibly powerful medicine.
