Recently i have been doing live but i mostly talk to myself. Its bad enough that i am already diagnosed with mental illness however it doesnt help that I am talking to myself during these Live sessions.
I have recently logged out of social media and its like a detox actually. Usually the first thing i do is check social media and initially i thought just 10 minutes but it will drag out to hours so its a good thing.
Nowadays, i occupy my time with talking to friends or chatting with them on Whats app or sms or calls and I do busking for the fun of it these day cause there was periods where i only got 2 dollars after singing my heart out for 3 hours. So i dont take any of the music i make seriously anymore. Afterall, its just a songs at the end of the day.
I have been going to the gym about 2-3 times a week and my body is aching as we speak but its a good kind of aching.
Some days i get triggered and start thinking of what might have happen if i did things differently. However, just to share, We are where we are suppose to be and like for the gym, eventhough i just started out again, i do start with experience.
I Guess what i am trying to say here is that getting thru the days, be some good, be some bad and be some like " What was that ??"…This is what life is all about.
Make the most of today
