It’s good to reflect sometimes.

I myself am feeling a bit dull lately. I’m working so hard at both my place of work and for the party that I forget that life has more to offer than communist propaganda spreading lol. I need to go out and touch grass more often. Today, for example, started at 6 and ended at 23 after cleaning, working, cooking and having a meeting with the party. Currently decompressing with wine and Harry Styles.

How about you guys?

    Exercise is hard to keep up when things are dark. I try and make myself walk through the woods every now and then it’s also spiritual and a moment of peace.

      There is a beach and a jungle nearby, but one is crowded with people (and garbage) and the other is dangerous (can run into some people and things you really shouldn’t see).

      I spent some time in Wales with my fiance in 2021. Couldn’t emigrate, but it was nice, since his cottage was 3km from the nearest village, so every day, I did walk through the woods just to go get the newspaper. And I was surprisingly content with the life in the fields, working around the property, helping grow potatoes, and so on. I know things may get better, but they’ll still get a little worse before they do. I look forward for the day I feel happier again to get back to exercising - even if the exercise is simply living the life where he lives.

      I’m thankful you understand. More often than not, people just tell to ‘just do it,’ or ‘just be happy,’ and such empty phrases.

        Yes I am living somewhere currently with little privacy to be alone in nature and it makes me miss my private spots back in my apartment.

        There is something really nice about simple life stuff like that.

        I hope things can get better for you sooner rather than later. Focus on healing! Because once you feel mentally/emotionally functional tackling the rest of the problems will come much easier.

        What sort of stuff have you seen in the jungle?

          Indeed, and thanks for your well-wishes.

          Well, because it’s a swampy mangrove in the bigger part of it, it’s easy to dispose of corpses if you want to be a few days before someone stumbles upon them. They’ll rot fast, making identification with the Third-World CSI means the Brazilian police has (if they bother to try) nearly impossible. Some drug cartels like to use spaces in between the trees to grow weed, and you don’t wanna stumble upon such a spot. They also will use the space to go to and from the metropolitan area of São Paulo. Many uncharted, unofficial paths there.
