Recovering from an illness that has disrupted my normal pattern of life, I decided I want to create a healthier life for myself.
A few years ago it was recommended to me that I keep a journal to help me get in touch with my inner emotions and know myself better. I thought it was a good idea, but never deviated from my pattern of ignoring my physical and mental health in favor of trying to get more tasks done.
When I was sick I couldn't get many things done at all, but it also made me realize how unimportant most of the things I do are because the world didn't stop when I wasn't able to do all the things I usually do.
Now I'm aspiring to get back to going to school on time, studying more, learning more, putting more effort into the things I do, staying on a healthy diet, going back to the gym and keeping this diary at least weekly. I have more goals, but for now I just want to focus on getting my day to day life under control.
Today I was late to school, after a loud bird singing outside my window woke me up an hour late. Tomorrow I want to wake up so early I have time for jasmine tea.
I feel really hopeful today.
