Yesterday, I wrote about my dark mood thinking that it was ‘frustration’, but that didn’t quite seem to fit. As I let it sit for the night and enjoyed being “lazy” for an evening, it freed my mind to be able to reflect and relax. This morning, during my meditation, a more accurate explanation came…

Frustration. Is that the word I am looking for? I am not sure. It feels right at the moment. What do I have to be frustrated about, though? Life on the whole is good. We finally have money coming in regularly. Our rent gets paid on time every month. The bills are getting paid. We…

Who knew that it would be nearly two months before I would find myself free and focused enough to post again once I got my visa? 🤔 I started working full-time on the 1st of November, which fills my days without much time to think about other things. This is both good and bothersome to…
