I can’t agree more.

Are you done hearing about a dead rabbit yet?
And i find it hard to explain why my heart is broken For one that couldn’t speak but always listened Who wasn’t there when I adventured but was there when I was lying down alone crying Who always understood when I needed a bit more help Who loved who I loved And sat with me when I had to say goodbye to them Your life was too short and mine excruciatingly long Meet me in the after.

Chester Buko 2014-2024
The calmest, most loving rabbit I have ever had, Chester peacefully passed in my arms Saturday night. He had a challenging last three months of his life, vet visits, liver disease, almost a month in total of confinement. In the end, he gave it his all, and held on until he could, gave us time to say goodbye. He laid down his head and was gone. He saw us through 10 years of good milestones, and broken hearts. He was our designer item authenticator. He was a vet favorite. He was the best bunny brother for all his bunny sisters. They have now welcomed him over the rainbow bridge, and…

It’s becoming more and more accurate the more time passes. We keep losing people right and left. There’s wars, genocides, famine, floods. It’s almost absurd how apocalyptic the weather has been, and the situation with the economy just seems to get more dire. I am choosing to live in the moment. We don’t know who’ll get hit by a car tomorrow. Or turn up dead in a ditch somewhere. Or live after a devastating tumor,…

This week
I’ve just felt like this. I know it’s my brain lying to me. I know it’s going to pass. It doesn’t make it easier when I’m in it. Self awareness is quite different from self actualization. It’ll get better, but for now, I will keep on keeping on.

Today I learned a lesson
Today the universe sent me a reminder. As I was walking back to my place, I saw some of the neighborhood cats. I proceeded to open a sachet of wet food I had in my pocket and offered it to the cats. As one of them was pregnant and we had not made friends before, it swatted at me and hissed very defensively. I walk away and realize 3 minutes later that I had started bleeding. See I knew the answer, but I was, for about 30 minutes, in denial that I had to get shots. Antirabies, anti tetanus, etc. I delayed until friends had confirmed that I indeed needed…

This is how I feel right now
Out of shape, can’t remember what I used to look like, and who I was. -J
