Hello World! I don’t know what this blog is going to be about. Perhaps, it was inspired by Julie and Julia, and I am letting the world know - I exist. I also try to make a sense of what I see and experience in everyday life.
I work as a mental health counselor working mostly with addictions. Often I hear the stories of lives of my clients that show me how much they suffered (physical, emotional and sexual abuse is a staple in my field) and how week I am…
And most of my internal life is a self-narrative about poor me… That’s how it is… so, I will report on it as it is.
On Sunday, I got involved in saving someone’s life (well, there were bunch of people in the whole chain of events, I was only at the beginning of it). Woman, about 75, was floating with her head underwater in the swimming pool, only her back was up. It was Superball Sunday, she was alone there. I alarmed everyone. When she was pulled out, she was dark blue. I thought she was dead. Well, out of 8 people in a gym, there was a guy who knew how to do CPR and he saved her (I chickened out, had a bad experience in the past, when person didn’t survive)… This reminded me of my own death, and I called my friends to find how they were, knowing that there will be a time when this will become impossible. This is it for today.
