I can always tell when the small bout of depression lifts. I become more aware of my surroundings and how messy things got. I become more aware of how many connections I have missed. And so as the cloud lifts I make small changes.
The first being reconnecting. And this is the year of coffee. So I had coffee with Michael. And today I had coffee with Belinda. We chatted and caught up and as we are winding down she comments about how exciting my life is.
My life is not overly exciting. I just tell good stories and I have good stories to tell. Whether it is something that makes me mad, sad or happy. I've always been able to tell a good story. Hopefully I don't embellish too much. I know that if I am writing I am allowed poetic license, but I don't do that verbally. Mostly I figure the story stands on its own merits.
It was good to spend a couple of hours catching up. Reconnecting. I haven't seen Belinda for awhile. Time gets away from us sometimes. Especially when we work and work different days. I missed her.
So I wonder who I can have coffee with next week? Hoping to keep up with this new trend.
