I now only post about once a week on Medium
and my mental health has been … better,

There was a time during the pandemic
where writing more, felt better,

but slowly, as the world revived to its
“new normal”, sorry I had to use this phrase —

I found that I am shifting my attention
from reflection in waiting,

to doing, being, hoping, dreaming;
especially in a time where it feels so hopeless,

because I think at this time
we need the most to act, to be OUT there,

connecting
in real life.
