There’s not really much to tell about today.
I was in a fair amount of pain, and oftentimes that leads to being in a really bad place mentally and emotionally as well, and today was no exception.
I didn’t want to get up. I didn’t want to go inside. I didn’t want to be social. I hurt. My mental health was crappy, and I just wanted to go home.
I did eventually go inside, but it wasn’t for very long. I don’t remember exactly how it all went down, but I think I went inside for a little bit, and then I spent the entire rest of the day in the van on one or the other or both of the beds.
I slept. I think I did some stretching. I did some research trying to figure out what on earth I could figure out to help my body not hurt so much. It was pretty rough.
When it came time to go to sleep again, I stayed up a bit just watching YouTube videos. Gratefully, I think that even though I had had a very long nap during the day, by maybe two in the morning, I was ready to fall asleep again, so I just crashed.
Rough physical day. Rough mental day. Rough emotional day.
But at least it gives me the opportunity to understand what it’s like for so many others on this planet who struggle with daily physical pain, mental pain, and emotional pain.
I am glad that I can empathize.
Lift the world.
