Step 220

Unfortunately, I found out some bad news this morning - my cousin called and told me my beloved Aunt Joan had a massive heart attack last night and is now in the hospital in a medically-induced coma. Overall, this calendar year (dating back to 2018 at this time) has been difficult for me in that there have been family members and friends getting sick, friends passing away (My best friend in Chicago CM passed away back last September due to pancreatic cancer), friends leaving the workplace for other jobs or lleaving the neighborhood or even the city, and in one case an acquaintance (not quite sure I can really refer to him as a friend now ... he's a listener on top of all this but I knew him outside of and before I joined 7 Cups) turned his back on me after hearing of CM's diagnosis and wouldn't show compassion or emotional support at the time.

It's difficult for me right now as the hits keep coming. I have to put on a brave face and try my best to keep moving forward and try to stay positive, but in today's world, with its absolute lack of empathy and compassion whatsoever, that is very hard for me to do sometimes.

So grateful I have managed to grow on my path and learn more.

I've lasted three months at my job.

@GlenM That there is much darkness in this world and I am powerless to stop it. More and more people are giving up their belief in right and wrong, and nothing I do can save them. But I will help with every opportunity I am given, despite the anger of others.

I haven't been so regular on this site, I know this place really helps, but I'm kinda lazy to complete a step everyday. Anyway, I reached step 120 in my path and I really hope to be ok this year.

I learned to love myself for who I am and to not overanalyze (as much)! Excited to continue my growth path and achieve more personal goals :)

Super happy and enthusiastic I've made a new milestone. Onwards!

110 steps. Talking to a friend is important. I get stuck in my own thoughts and start to worry if I don

Journaling and meditation really work. You just need to start.
