I had a lot of feelings of sadness I wasn’t dealing with. I had a good cry and I thought of all my successes I had in my 30s. I just had my 38th birthday a few weeks ago. I got invited to an event Edi is having and I’m going. I am being less hard on myself. When I make mistakes I remind myself “Ayesha you made a mistake you’re human.” It’s hard to deal with my illness sometimes. I forget things sometimes. I am trying to be good to myself and let things go. I remind myself the next time will be better. I always tell myself that I can’t do anything about the past but I can only do things in the present and in the future. Letting go of the past and doing my best in the present is what I focus on because the past is in the past. I try to be more present and do all I can now.
I cried the other day. I realized I felt kind of sad.
