Finding me more
Accepting reality means that you make the conscious choice to come to terms with reality for what it is, not by the memory of what you were before, and not by the dream of who you will be in the future...
A chance to life…
I would not want to be the Covid survivor next door giving people sleepless nights by endlessly retelling the chilling story of how scary the experience was and how I saw death glaring at me! Or the person who entirely centres conversations on facts of how deadly the disease is or how delicate the times that we are living in are.
I just want people to acknowledge these two facts simultaneously: that Covid is real and serious, and that being vaccinated is a simple and effective countermeasure.
When the mountain won’t move…
The story that I am about to tell you does not begin when we conceived or when the complications started 3months later. It begins on 20 March 2020 when I was referred for a scan owing to (not so severe) pelvic pains. I never went! One, because we had just started working from home following…

Circles
The days are long, but the years are short! For some daft reason, I will start with an apology for ghosting you readers for most part of the year gone. Indeed, the days were long (extraordinaire); and before we knew it, the year gone. But was it that short? Mathematically speaking, 2020 lasted approximately 24…
Complete…
The me (now) would concur. I would say that before you know who you wholly are outside of someone else, you will never find any form of completeness from another...
