Disconnected ~ Dina Rebekka
When I first started this blog over a year ago, in one of the first few posts
that I uploaded I spoke about how the advice that's commonly given to writers
is, "Write what you know."
This has been playing on my mind once again these past few weeks because I've
been unable to write anything. Words have not been my friend and writing had
definitely left the group chat. I couldn't write because there was so much
going on with me mentally and in my life that I needed to use the energy to
make it through each day and the thought of writing didn't make the cut, sadly.
If I'm being honest, and that's what this blog is about, I'm still not
doing well but I needed to write just in case there's someone out there reading
this who cares, who enjoys reading what I upload. Is there someone? Anyone? It
would be nice to know, to feel like I'm connected to something other than
what's going on with me. So I decided to open a blank note on my phone and took
that golden advice of, "Write what you know." And this is it . . . I'm
still here, I'm still fighting, I'm still trying to do better, and I'm carrying
on fighting back the OCD so I can have a life for myself. It's just that, right
now? Everything is heavy. Everything just feels up in the air and I don't have
a solid enough ground to stand on so uploading blog posts might be sparse, (or
this post might be the thing I need to get me back going again, who knows? 🤷♀️) or I might decide to round
off and finish writing for this blog altogether because I don't know what I'm
getting from it anymore. However, currently, I'm always posting
quotes on Instagram and being active on there so make sure you follow me
(tagged below). I may even take a break from uploading here and instead post
updates on my recovery over there so be sure to check it out but I'm not sure
yet! Long story short, I don't fully know what I'm doing yet with this space! 😂 Please comment
or message me on my socials if you would like me to keep writing here because
it would be nice to know that my writing reaches people and is enjoyed. I'm
sorry also if you've been missing my blog posts whilst I've been on my mini
hiatus, I wanted to write but just simply couldn't.
For now though, I wanted to say to anyone who is struggling whether mentally,
physically, financially, all of the above, or with anything life is dealing you
at the moment, I hope and I'm giving you the strength to carry on, and to
continue being the incredibly strong, capable, amazing, kind person you are.
Things will get easier for us, we're too resilient for it not too. 💕
All in all, I wanted to write and share this to let you know what's going on
and to also let you know that I'm thinking of you which brings us to the main
part of this post . . .
"I'm thinking of you."
It's a small sentence. Only 4 words. It's a simple phrase but it holds so much
meaning and power.
"I'm thinking of you."
You're not alone. No matter how much your circumstances, your battles, or even you
may be saying or making you feel like you are, you're not. Because I am thinking
of you. You're here in my head and heart, you're on my mind so you are here,
in my life, in my world because I'm thinking of you.
I'm thinking about you and hoping and wishing that you're doing okay and that
if you're not that it gets easier for you soon. Whatever is going on, you're
not alone, you're loved, and you are thought of.
"I'm thinking of you."
You matter and are cared for despite how isolated you feel. From yourself or
others, you matter and are connected to those around you, through your loved
ones, friends, family, pets, hobbies, job, your favourite movie, your favourite
artist. You are connected even when you're by yourself; you're never alone as
you may feel. And it's okay to feel like that, life is difficult and demands so
much of us that we feel like we're stuck within our own lives and routines with
no bonds to others but I'm here to say that those bonds exist, you are not
alone. 💜
"I'm thinking of you."
Something that we all find ourselves doing. We think of our loved ones, past
and present, and we spend a minute or two experiencing the love we feel for
them, the good times we've shared, and that feeling you get in your chest when
thinking of those you love. That unifying feeling that connects us. That we all
share a sense and feeling of love and belonging to others, no matter how alone
we may feel at times, and no matter how much we struggle, there are people out
there who are thinking of us.
So to the person reading this, I'm Thinking Of You. I hope that you feel safe,
free, loved, whole, and so much more in life. And if, like me, at the moment
you're finding yourself stuck and without guidance or certainty of where you're
going or what you're doing, I hope you know that you can, and will
figure it out because life is tough but so are you. Don't get caught up in the
feeling of "Hey Universe, Did You Forget About Me?" because the
Universe hasn't, and neither have I.
Thank you so much for reading! 💜
