I am at a loss, unable to shake the summer blues and this mild sense of despair. Usually, it is my calm demeanor which anchors my thoughts and outlook on life, but this past week has been confusing, if not alarming. While only a glimpse, I see how mental health issues can be destabilizing. I know I need to focus on abundance, gratitude, adventures of life; yet I am plagued with a constant melancholy and lack of interest. My prescription is to journal, walk, meditate -- the key to recovery is gratitude.
Today is Mae's birthday. We'll go out to dinner with Marianne and Thad's family. Tomorrow is the 4th of July. We invited my extended family.
