Very quiet.....

More than 100 candidates vying for same position as me. But I guess 100 is considered OK. Saw on EdmW 800 pax applied for 1 vacancy

Heyyy thanks for sharing ur story ,
One day when u miss yr pa
U d realise that times that u had w him u ve done e best u could hv for him 🤗🫡n that s no mean feat as a sole caregiver

I feeel u maybe .. only maybe a .. cos this is based on my own observations or feelings

Maybe after all e normal life resume ... life caught up n overwhelmed u that s why u no longer felt as chirpy n happy  cos
Alr gotten used to busy new normal life ordinary buziness post covid ..

We n everyone no longer hv the everythalsoCant kinda covid time ..where we can hermit around n no need entertain or see 1/10 of e ppl we usu see.

when u go online or see ppl around u ppl alr moved on
Whether grow more biz
Or change a few jobs
Or maybe chg house or gf or car
Then we all here just same so maybe a bit less motivated and excited than initially enjoy our little hermit life

Actually being happy is quite subjective.. many a times we feel unhappy cos we compare or aim sthg too high or too low for ownself

If we adjust our mindset .. just care abt stuff we can control .. those can't control really is hv to let go n let God cos many in control many mybfd in life 🤔🤔

Jiayou ! N keep being e best version of yrself

Hope u set aside 1 h to self care maybe rest n read
Or zone out
Or pray/ or journal which ever helps u
Or go exercise
When you feel better u will do better things to help ur wellbeing n ur health will be restored
