A friend of mine asked me on the weekend….
“How do you keep on keeping on… after a major life change?”
Well Saturday was a good day, productive, happy.
But there are hard days.
Days where it feels like gravity is 10 times normal and a huge boulder is on the back of your neck.
Days when your mind does not seem to work, like watching an old reel film at high speed.
Days when your inner soul aches.
Again… the question… How do you keep on keeping on?
Many have asked this… who have gone through much more than me.
I am sure many have much better answers than me.
To me, I rely on stubbornness…. determination….
But I have also found other ways to keep on keeping on.
I rely on friends… it helps so much to be with people who care.
I rely on positive messages, affirmations. For me, this often is posting things to social media that relate to how I am feeling.
I rely on family, knowing they are there for me, and I have to be there for them.
I rely on serving others… I often look for ways to help others… this brings joy and happiness to my soul.
There are many ways to keep on keeping on.
What is your way?
