The retrospection

This was partially composed almost 2 years ago. This time there are real reasons for my absence from blogging and my laziness is not one of them. I am glad about this.

As I ponder over events of the years that passed, it was a quite tricky and challenging. The impact of the Covid 19 pandemic, having been the victim of biggest deception and betrayal, emotional support of friends and family, shattered plans, yet I managed to keep my emotional health in check. Isn't that a great achievement compared to the turmoil I went through in past few years.

I regularly worked out until my eye surgery. After the recovery mind did its tricks and won over my will, I gained a lot of weight, reduced physical activity and reached, probably the worst physical shape yet in life. My workout attempts did not continue past a week. I had motivation, but I had stronger reasons not to. It is funny to dwell on those reasons, yet mind played the trick and won all the time.

All my plans of learning new language, music are still in the planning stage.

Perhaps work is the biggest factor that held me together. I too needed that. I buried myself in work, work consumed me, and above all the team bursting with positive energy kept me from falling into the trap. Yet again, I am hoping 2023 is going to be the best year yet.
