Days 86 and 87 of 108

 It has been a very rough and painful, yet fun and interesting time the last couple of days. I really want to get out of fear - of the unknown. I mean, I have come from there. Something about that space must be familiar to me. 

Anyway, it was really good that I actually called up two old friends and asked if they wanted to catch up. Both came home and it was so good. One of them I was meeting after a long time. So much happens when you don't stay in touch. But I feel that time apart is when Life really has its way with you. And those are the times when you genuinely see how little you need to live. But you need that little so much. (Strange little things. Things you don't feel as if you could without but you do.)

Anyway, a quick round up of things I am grateful for. Today my heart is not in it though. Still. I heard somewhere that you just have to do the time and ride out the storm. It is not yet raining in Mumbai. It has started affecting me emotionally now. 

Anyway...in the spirit of grit and persistence:

1. Papa is well. He came to check on me today. I felt good but also very badly triggered. This angst feels ancient. I want to just stop doing this blog and get to writing on paper to make sense of these things.

2. I am mobile so far. Who knows for how long I may have this ability? Still. Am glad that I have the ability to walk and move to places if I can. 

3. Went for a haircut today. Had the resources for it. So that was nice. 

4. Enjoyed the afternoon walk home from Linking Road. 

5. Went to Bonobo last night. It was great fun! 

6. A friend from long ago came home. It was good connecting.
