It’s another morning of daily routine with opening up the curtains and making my bed. Then of course checking my vitals (blood sugar, heart rate, and blood pressure). Then I have my morning breakfast of 17 pills and powders, light a scented candle, and then I start my day with you. For me routine is a good thing, it keeps my head in a good place, rather it’s in a good place or not. And that’s important because it keeps me honest with myself.
For a while I was living in a world of “plausible deniability” meaning I wasn’t taking responsibility for my actions or outcomes. It’s like smoking most of your life then being and not taking responsibility when you end up with lung cancer. I gladly take the blame for most of my health issues. But with some of my cognitive actions…not so much. I usually end up laying the blame on others when it was I that walked into the situation. But there are times when things come out of the blue and shaming yourself is not the thing to do.
Listen I don’t know what has gotten me on this subject. All I was thinking about when I woke up was how nice it was to sleep through the night. And nice and pretty it was outside my window this morning. I guess thing is we have to strike a balance with ourselves of who we should blame. I mean most of my health issues are obviously because of genetics, but at the same time I knew better. With my cognitive issues, I can see where loved ones shared the same condition. But like with my other health issues it’s up to me to seek help.
