I need to put it out there…

Does anyone know where I can get my hands on an astronaut suit….

I cannot remember the last time I have gotten myself into so many accidents. I have had the tendency to injure myself quite a few times lately and it is becoming quite annoying. I am always so careful and it’s not like I have been wondering around strange places that I am not used to. I don’t know why though, but the world seems to be against me lately and I am waving my white flag…

Over the past two weeks I have lost count of the number of times I have injured my legs by walking into tables and chairs. Have had bruised marks on for the past two weeks. I have even cut and grazed them at the same time.

I have also burned my hands numerous times on the iron and by pouring boiling hot water out the kettle while making coffee and missing the mug. The air fryer and oven don’t seem to like me either for that matter. Plus, I managed to hit my head on a metal beam and a hand drier in the bathroom at university….

White flag is waving high, VERY high….

Thus, I am asking if anyone knows where I can get myself an astronaut suit because I am tired of unexpected injuries. At this point I just laugh at the number of times I can hurt myself in such a short time. It just does not seem to be humanly possible to not learn from the first couple of times and yet here we are…. What an idiot….

I feel like sometimes I am not exactly the greatest role model and I beg that you do not follow the stupidity that I am showing at this current time…. I just need to share this as I cannot stop thinking about how bad my luck has been over the past few weeks. I mean, even getting told that my show jumping teammate, Wiliam, passed away… I need a break from my reality….

As much as these past few weeks have seemed like a punch to the gut, I know that there are people who have it much worse and I need to keep pushing forward. I know that if I take a break from my reality, I won’t see all the moments that I can take in a form of a lesson. I will not see all the people that need me to support them in their time of need or struggle. If I take a break from my reality, I will not realise how strong I actually am in terms of how much I can take on. In terms of how resilient and determined I am and I know that even if I want a break, I am not someone who takes the easy way out. I like the challenge. Like I said, I just laugh at myself for being such a cluts and such a magnet for so many strange lessons.

If you ever feel like giving up, please just remember that things will EVENTUALLY get better. I know it’s a cliche but take my advice… It never stays dark forever, the light will come back and things will get easier. You have to keep walking to make it through the tunnel…. Ahhhh, it’s so corny but the load does not need to be so heavy all the time. Just take a deep breath.

p.s. if you ever need help and feel like you are drowning, you know where to find me….
