Day 87 #100happydays: Happy place

August 19th, 2016, 7pm

I was doing so well. I’ve been feeling relaxed and in a holiday haze for the past few weeks, but the toll of daily life has finally hit home. Family stress has made me feel stressed and anxious, and I can feel it all cascading again.

But the sun came out as the train approached home, and the light is really beautiful on the balcony garden. Just being amongst the plants has calmed me down. And some wise words from my sister has put everything into perspective. It’s not my responsibility or battle to fight. I need to focus on myself, and my own sanity.


Adrian, David Wade and Adele said thanks.
