Dear raging vortex,

Thanks for posting this.

I like going for walks and observing all the little animals and creatures in nature: the ants busy foraging and building their ant hills, the moths and butterflies flying about, the little spiders building their webs, the various birds singing their little songs and swimming in the sky, the squirrels looking for food. It is also nice when walking to feel the wind on my face and the sunshine and to see and smell the beautiful flowers.

I hope many people will see and respond to your post with their self care ideas.

Best to you.

Sincerely yours, Yao Wen

It's from Bath and Body Works. It's a body spray actually. It's the Japanese Cherry Blossom scent. I love that scent.

Today for self care I put on my perfume, I put some cream on my scars, and I'm studying Lectio Divina which is a certain way to read the Bible that a friend told me about.

Today I took a shower and washed my hair, and put on perfume. I'm doing self care by reaching out to people both in real life and online when I'm feeling unwell.

Showered, washed my hair, and brushed my teeth. Tried not to eat too much. I'm going to a virtual support group tonight.
