@itchyd I too suspect that this life is “it” and after that is eternal rest. I’d like to believe otherwise but I can’t. It would be wonderful to be able to believe there’s more and also that I’d be chosen to experience it. Chosen because I having loved my neighbour well. For helping the poor and the needy. For not judging. For taking care of the splinters in my own eye. For being kind. Etc!

I have had bouts of anxiety and depression at different times in my life. When my grandmother was murdered. When my mother died suddenly from illness. When we moved country due to war. When I was dumped by my first love and took the rejection very deeply.

I’ve bounced back each time by looking to see how I can help others. It’s so easy to get tangled up in your head and to isolate yourself.

Wishing you the very best for 2025 🙏
