I would like start with an easy-breezy joke. But my August 2022 was far from funny, so I'll let it be.
Being at my lowest, I halted the "Picture a day" streak on this blog. But guess what? Oddly I still continued to photograph myself. Except it took me two month of healing to be able to watch the photos I made back then and conduct a post.
It's okay not to be okay.
My mental health counsellor told me that these post are my anti-depressant that help with self-awareness, regulating emotion and motivation building.
It actually works! Looking back I have proof that after a shitty day (or week or uncertain period of time) it gets better.

I have found my suitable form of being a mother and she is just kindest/smartest/sweetest kid.
(very humble objective opinion)
