By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

So, weekend before Easter I contracted Covid and was off the whole week from work, over this period I had a major reflection of my life as it currently stands and realised I was actually quite lonely, hence my profile update, seeing what comes of it, who knows.

So my question is this, at what point in your life did you realise that something wasn't right or missing totally?

Late 30’s. When I was turning 40 I knew I needed to mix things up a bit. I think milestones are an eye opener to reflect.

Many times.

The pandemic has made me take serious stock on things, and I've been making significant changes.

When I was 30 and left a toxic relationship, I realised I didn’t recognise myself anymore - my confidence left me completely and I was broken for a while.

I took some time out and focused on myself for 2yrs, I didn’t date anyone seriously and I just filled my time with exercise, good friends, new hobbies and building my dance business in time the old me came back.

Now I set goals each year that I want to achieve and when I feel I’m going off track or feeling low I remind myself why I set them, they help me to focus xx

I tend to take each day as it comes. I have vague future plans like retiring at 60 but nothing else really.

I realised at Christmas that I’ve only got myself to rely on with no family. I’ve always known that anyway. Having Covid was horrible over New Years as was so unwell with it.

Just been reading a few of these posts on here. I feel you people. Love you all as you are. We all just need a lil bit of love ayy?

Well for me, I tend to meditate daily (seasoned veteran so to speak of the phenomenon) and ebb & flow with each moment as it comes. I don't really have solid plans or things I want to achieve, but I do have some ideas about things I'd love to do if the opportunities arise.

I feel the smoothest way to live you're life is, living in the moment and attending to things as they happen. No one knows what's going to happen 2 seconds from now, so no one really has all the answers.. but one thing we can do is be attentive to each moment that occurs and live in the moment, otherwise we lose that moment and can't get it back again.
