Let’s go work for our dreams and kick some butt while we’re at it!
It was October, and I was happy
because October is my favorite month
and it was raining
because I’m a fan of generally bad weather.
I was tired of all the hot, dry, merciless heat,
and had been counting the days for the rain
to come to town, knock on my door,
let itself in, take its shoes off and put on a kettle of tea–
chai, warm to the touch and spicy to the taste,
because it was cold outside and rain needs to be warm
sometimes, too.
I waited until the day when the rain came in,
sat down on my worn-out, blue
armchair, stretched itself out and said,
“By the way, thanks for not using an umbrella
or a hat or your hood. I know I got you wet,
but it’s nice to know that you appreciate my work,
because how insulting is it when you put all this time
into trying to hydrate the world and then people
just try to block you with umbrellas and raincoats?“ Then I said, “You’re welcome. I know
how you feel, and also, I’m a big fan of yours.” In this moment, I realized that not only
am I a fan of generally bad weather,
but that I am a hater of generally good weather, too.
Maybe that’s why the sun never comes to visit.
How I got a handle on my mental health
In honor of mental health awareness month, I thought I’d finally share the story of how I dealt with my anxiety and depression.
With the coronavirus outbreak, I’ve missed going to my favorite coffee/tea shop and enjoying a chai latte…so I decided to make my own. Click the link below to read all about it and let me know what you think if you try it !
