Be kind - It's the greatest gift you have
Posted: March 17th, 2020, 9:47 pm
Some of you are aware of my prolonged health issues.
Four decades of slowly but inexorably sinking into a pit of depression, sleep deprivation, sleep debt, unsociable behaviours and more.
I'm a different person today.
Towards the end of my struggle many decided my behaviour was a choice. It wasn't. It was a symptom of huge chemical imbalances not just in my brain but elsewhere within my body.
I've managed to take two things away from the wreck of my first life. I keep an inordinate amount of cash in my current account. Enough to allow me to go without work for two years. It helps me sleep at night.
The other is to simply be kind. And that too helps me sleep at night.
AiYn'U - I hasten to add I am no angel when I haven't slept well - grumpy & tetchy
