No news is good news, is often said.
In my case, this year went a whole lot different. I have been quiet this year, not because everything was dandy but because I have been ill. I have not been in public much. Most of my projects I had to postpone, and some I even had to cancel. I have been mostly lying horizontally and for someone who has always been on the move. It has been tough. Just as I thought I was recovering from the first operation, there was another surprise. Congratulations, a tumor🥺.
How could they not have seen it? It's on the same side. I wondered if I would do everything the same way and honestly asked myself what I would do differently from now on. I would laugh more, I said to myself, and definitely dance more, perform my inner drag-king publicly, I say 😂. I am hoping I can walk properly again as I am getting physiotherapy. I thank the universe, the gods, and the spirits that all went well. I thank the doctors and nurses. I would continue to love the ones I have so far and definitely be less afraid. I will keep exploring and keep making, but at a slower rate, as my body is demanding more rest, care, and balance. I have learned that work alone will not be all. And that I should create what my heart says and not be confined to what I should be making or what is expected.
This year has been challenging, and dark clouds keep hovering for now. But this, too, will pass. I am taking it one day at a time, with a lot of willpower and motivation that has never left my spirit. As soon as I can, I will continue to move ☀️.
