Hanging on by my fingernails
Hanging on – just barely |
This is a hard topic for me right now because it cuts a little too close to the bone. I’ve been having a really hard time lately. The headaches have been relentless AND accompanied by mood crashes that last at least a couple of days. It all leaves me feeling worthless as a human being. Worth less than other people around me who walk the planet and go about their daily lives getting things done, having a good time, etc. Sometimes all you can do is just hang on.

Suicide is a bad idea
The good memories
Floating in the Eel River in northern Cal |
Swimming has become one of my favorite activities lately. I’m a really good floater and I feel weightless and cool, including my head, which all too often, feels too hot and heavy for my body. The Eel River in the redwoods of northern California has some fantastic swimming holes. This was a short hike below our campground.
A good dinner with my family, swimming in Bellingham Bay, 5 min. from our house, taking care of my grandson: these are all worth hanging onto when the going gets tough.
