Grief is the price that we pay for love.

Today was a very stressful and emotional day. Maybe it was the lack of sleep or the rawness of life or the overstimulation or the fact I wear my heart on my sleeve.

Stop giving people access to your life, Amina. This is something I have told myself over and over again. Although, I am usually quite good at having boundaries. Today was not one of them days. Oh today, today was a royal mess.

And that is putting it politely.

Let’s just say there is a reason I prefer my own company despite being a social butterfly.

I am still overstimulated and overwhelmed that I cannot sleep. That is my own fault. You can never blame anyone else apart from yourself. Once you understand this, you will be free. The easiest and also most difficult thing to control is your own mind. And maybe for me at the moment, another part of my body too!

On that note…

With love,
