I've been a birdwatcher for years. I find it both calming and relaxing. And in all the time observing them, I've never seen a worried bird. Yes they have predators and instincts but I don't believe that birds worry. About anything.
We have all done a fair amount of worrying recently. Life with a vestibular disorder brings about anxiety on a daily basis. But while most of the world worried about toilet paper and hand sanitizer, I was far more concerned about having my anti nausea and dizziness medication. I have enough to last me for quite some time. I will be okay. Toilet paper never even registered on the worry scale.
I'm not going to worry. Worrying will only exacerbate my symptoms and I really don't need that on top of everything else right now. I'm going to focus my energy elsewhere and lay low until the storm passes.
And this just in...as of 30 minutes ago, there is toilet paper in my grocery store again.
I have enough, but bought some anyway.
And in case you were worried about the birds, I replenished the birdfeeder.
What a powerful lesson and great reminder.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lola. Hope you are okay and not worrying.
