This year has been rather rough on me!! Im going through ‘all time low’… Honestly I am!! I lost two people this year who were ever so dear to me… my dad and then my gran. I never imagined a life without dad or gran, and now when he isn’t there on the other side of the phone… I just feel lost & lonely. Some days, I wish heaven had a phone *sigh*
But this isn’t all… a few of my friends have been ill, some others had accidents… And to top it all, a guy at work was diagnosed with lung cancer. Although he was diagnosed two years ago, then claimed he was cured (don’t ask how!!), collapsed three weeks ago. He was on ventilator for two weeks, and now is back and has been discharged from hospital. But docs say, it’s the last stages. He’s got a few more weeks to go. I’ve been constantly thinking about him, talking to people I know… doctors, friends, spiritual healers… anyone who I think can help, get him into hospital for radiotherapy. He should finally get an appointment this week. I’m relieved!! But the whole episode of talking to so many people, narrating the same story over and over again, getting someone on the other side to either hear me out… or atleast try and help…. has kind of affected me… What is this life really worth?? !! Why do people simply not care for each other? Why don’t you do, the smallest of thing… to help someone? Why are we so selfish? Why is it that we have to associated ourselves to a bigger cause? And be part of something big? Why cant we just help random people we meet in our day to day lives?
Anyway……….. enough!! Enough of me moaning and groaning… That’s not what this blog is about… *sigh*…
When Im low, very very low, the one thing that gets me back on track is rejuvenating walls. Yes, restoring, reenergising, resurrecting. Ooohh!! Such strong words. *smiles*
Now here is what I did this weekend…
Now thats what the room ... looked like...
And with a little help from the awesome team at 'Kwikdeko' ....
These went on the wall... Was super easy... no effort at all..
I know.. I could have painted them, but Im just super lazy. But I tell you what... no one believes this is a sticker... its as good as paint.. Trust me.. when I say this!! :)
So do you like it ?
I'm always in love with peacocks... they make me super happy...
This week will be well spent... painting more walls around the house... so watch out for some fun *smiles*..

ReplyDeleteHi Patricia... i can completely understand your mental status .... coz we cannot come out of our loss even today.... the thing is we should be courage.... we should spread the awareness about cancer.... that's what we are doing now in a small level... but still lot to do about that... i think we can do it in future.... let all the positive thoughts help us.... just share the natural things that heals cancer.... that's all we are doing it now..... And i liked the peacock feathers very much... :)
