Playing On The Tracks

"I thought I saw a light at the end of the tunnel, but it was just another train"

 

Gosh, i never knew I liked trains so much!..

I was cautious, too. Without being paranoid. Or crippled by fear. I took another small step into the darkened corridor of chance and...whop!

Hi @Kyle1 

 

There will be light at the end of the tunnel.

Keep going.

Dont stop.

Remember your progress because it is these trials that you will be able to help others overcome with their journey.

Try and celebrate the short steps.

Re: Playing On The Tracks

@Kyle1 I haven't responded because, so often, I can't tell when you're speaking from your current situation or being poetic. 🤔

 

I hope you're doing alright. 

Re: Playing On The Tracks

🤔 yeah, I guess I was. Can't help it, seems... @Historylover 

I was talking about dipping my toes into social waters once again. 

Maybe too soon.

Re: Playing On The Tracks

All in good time, @Kyle1. Perhaps you should look into developing your love of poetry. It seems to be natural part of your identity. Are there courses you can do? 

Re: Playing On The Tracks

many years ago @Historylover I would 'study' writing styles and poetic form with our beloved YouTube. 

It was pretty handy! 

 

Can I lean on you a little tonight?..

I've fallen ill and haven't slept in two days and now I'm really feeling like the handles are falling off. Thankfully I got the groceries and dinner sorted already. 

 

Ive laid in bed most of the day. I'm morose. Confused. Scared (about life in general)...My head feels like a grenade went off in there.

If I can't sleep tonight...I don't know.

Last night I laid there listening to sleep hypnosis all the while, and that didn't work a jot.

 

Any tips?

 

Re: Playing On The Tracks

yes, I think you're right @Former-Member 

It's a thing worth trying over.

Re: Playing On The Tracks

@Kyle1, sorry to hear you’ve fallen ill and haven’t been sleeping. I know there is a lot out there for sleep hygiene. I just tend to do a combination of self soothing stuff, take meds and wear amber glasses

Re: Playing On The Tracks

yeah, I've tried all that. Even the meds did nothing... @creative_writer 

I'm in a pickle to be sure

 

Re: Playing On The Tracks

@Kyle1, I don’t really know, sorry 😔, but I am sitting with you 💖🫂
