Week 10 - Wednesday

I felt so alert and ‘with it’ today! Out to the supermarket in the morning, wrote a reply to a letter that been waiting a round for a week or two, did my self-Reiki session, lunch, washing up and realised I had a spare ten minutes before I left for work - time enough to sort through and throw out a number of journals and magazines gathering dust in my study. All ordinary stuff - but so different than the way I have been feeling most days recently.

I am aware I often write that I did very little and describe a day that, to most other people, must sound like a laid-back relaxed day. What is difficult to communicate is the vacuous feeling that underlies this. Almost a malaise. Letter that needs a reply? Don’t feel like it today - oh well. And so it goes on, day after day, with things not getting done.

After a number of days and weeks of this ‘vacuous malaise’, I am pleased to celebrate a day when I felt like I could, wanted to, and did get on with ordinary life!!
