Hi Valeria
How are you feeling? Can you name your emotions?
I'm feeling quite well, pretty happy and calm
How has this week started for you? Are there any specific thoughts about it you would like to share with us?
Pretty normal, my aunt heard a good friend of hers pasted away yesterday, so that's quite sad
What is one of your favourite quotes?
It's from an anime March comes in like lion, where a teacher tells a bully, that's insecure and scared to fail, that it's ok to not know what to do or even fail, as long as you try
@Madaraismyspiritanimal
Hi Richard! I am glad to hear that you are feeling quite well, happy and calm!
I
@admaiorasemper
No I didn't know her friend at all, but I do feel affected a little by my aunt's sadness
The fear to fail can be a very debilitating one. I try and repeat to myself that it's ok to not be able to do everything perfectly the first time
@Madaraismyspiritanimal
It makes sense that her sadness is affecting you... Emotions felt by those we care about often impact us as well. The more emphatic we are, the greater the impact is unless we are extremely careful and take good self-care...
I very much agree with you: it's ok to not be able to do everything perfectly the first time. And the second time. And perhaps the third time too. It is also ok to be able to do something in an ok way. Not perfect. But ok :)
How are you feeling? Can you name your emotions?
I think I'm feeling okay. I feel anxious, tired, sad, confused.
How has this week started for you? Are there any specific thoughts about it you would like to share with us?
Week has so far started off good, It's the rest of the week i'm not looking forward to with all the doctors appts.
What is one of your favourite quotes?
"What we see depends mainly on what we look for"
Hi there @Goldcherry2113 ! Thank you for stopping by and joining this check-in. It is nice to read from you!
I am glad to read that despite some difficult feelings as sadness and anxiety, you are ok all in all. If you do not mind to share: what are some strategies that you find helpful when dealing with those feelings?
Doctors appts are rarely something we look forward to, I hear you… what do you personally find more stressful about them?
I love your quote and find there is so much truth in it. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Take good care of yourself and good luck with you appts!
@admaiorasemper
I am feeling a little sad, but mostly content (is that even possible?)
This week started fine. I had a three day weekend but I also failed a math quiz. Still have a B in the class though.
"Solitude is a catalyst for innovation."
@PurpleSnail
Hi there Snail, thank you for stopping by! It is always nice to see you here and read from you!
It is very possible to have mixed feelings: human life is so complex! I once read a very interesting article about this, will share with you the link in case you may want to read it!
I am sorry to hear about the maths test, but as you say you still have a B and that's very good!
I really like your quote. I do find that solitude can be really inspiring. Thank you for sharing!
Take good care of yourself x
