A follow up post in a way

Here is where I am at:

For about the last two weeks I feel like everything I have been writing is garbage, but that is really to be expected sometimes. I don't think I can expect one thing to be better than the last one all the time and what matters, anyway, is practice and building up a good habit.

Habit is a good transition because I feel like I am just now realizing how many bad or unproductive habits I have maintained for God knows how many years without being aware of them. In a sense, I try to fix everything at one. In other words that is just leaving out things that I don't feel so strongly about now out of my daily routine and see how that makes me feel.

Yesterday that maybe was a soul-crushing realization, however, today it is an electrifying mist of opportunity. I am remodelling my or rather refocusing my habits to become happier and more successful at the things I care about, including myself.

Lastly, I am considering removing my work from wattpad because I had a conversation about theft yesterday and now I am really scared about making somebody else's life a whole lot better without them actually working for it. Also, my credit card info was stolen from somebody and they tried to take away my money from an ATM in India, so it feels like a good time to make some decisions.

Conflicted

About two weeks ago I had a doctor's appointment, which from my experience I was expecting to be a lengthier affair. I hadn't seen him in a while and we would always have a lovely chat, yet this last time our business was rather brief and I was surprised to find myself in the middle of an anecdote of mine when there was obviously no reason for me to take up anymore of his time than necessary. The moment became really awkward actually when I quickly wrapped up my tale only to find that his reaction was not how I thought it was going to be and after saying our goodbyes I went home feeling a certain way about myself. It took some time of reflection to understand that I was desperate to have a conversation with someone. That I was lonely during that time and didn't really know where to go with myself, but that would only be half of the truth. It wasn't that I was lacking direction, but that I was missing motivation - that I was scared. There are few things that I like ...

On Priviledge

I understand that the situation worldwide surrounding COVID-19 is terrible. It is required that people stay home during this time in order to slow down the spread of the pandemic and that is as much attention as I intend to give to this omnipresent topic for now, but even the invasion of my thoughts in the morning, as I write this, is difficult to deal with because I am trying to explain myself in a somewhat chronological fashion and it is bound to come up again in this retrospective practice. There are certain stress related symptoms that I am experiencing again lately. A couple of months back was the first time that I had a skin-related issue besides severe backpain after I was done working on my thesis and it was a little troubling for me, honestly speaking. I believe the symptoms are now showing again because of the last couple of weeks. My mother, whose age I am not willing to specify other than elderly, was scheduled to have a hip replacement operation and I was nervous as hell...

Change

The one thing that has been on my mind the most over the course of the last couple of weeks was, and still is, change. The best way I can describe how it has made me feel like would be to talk about a friend of mine. It is a close friend of mine, one of my best friends in fact, (but) and he is moving away. See, my first instinct was to say "one of my best friends in fact, but he is moving away" because that's how I feel right now or rather have felt for some time now. "..., but he is moving away" implies that our relationship is going to change, which I know it will not. He is not doing something to me, I understand. "... and he is moving away" implies that our relationship is more firmly embedded in trust. That we both understand that life is like that and friends might move away at some point, but you still stay friends. You just don't see each other all the time. Actually, most of our friends have already moved a little further away from were we...
