In isolation we suffer, in closeness we blossom. And the grey area in between when we are technically together but miles apart can be the worst of all.
Out on the street you see function and dysfunction in relationships wherever you go. If you can connect to your fellow humans life can be beautiful, and if you can’t it’s a slog. So it’s always worth trying your hardest because the rewards are great and the alternative is shite.
I do not have much contact with many folk at present because I don’t have the capacity to do so and I can feel the effect it’s having on my wellbeing. Yes, people can be a pain in the arse and some are even toxic and to be avoided but life’s a lot duller without them. Don’t take your nearest and dearest for granted, every connection we have is precious and worth feeding and protecting…
My favourite steel drum playing Santa was out again this year and was delighted as he has provided me with my xmas post for many years as sure many of you will recognise him. Even though he doesn’t ever look super happy and a little light on xmas cheer I am always very happy to see him.
Seasons greetings to you all, wishing you a merry whatever and a glorious new year…
