Vicissitudes
As I cake-walk (hopefully) into my second week of work and all the other things that I am trying to incorporate into my routine, I learn that even though I am well aware that nothing is a linear journey and it has its vicissitudes, I still struggle to deal with it.

It is also important for the readers(If at all, you exist..) to know that, it was this struggle to confront these vicissitudes that hindered me from writing again last week.
And what happened now for me to write here again?
Honestly, nothing. It's the same vicissitudes. Today is a high day. The past week's days were lows, perhaps.
I have been consistent with my routine and I am trying hard to not look for results every day. It's tough but I don't have an option. Secondly, an Instagram friend posted a couple of stories very randomly a few days back. It comprised a few excerpts from her journal from a few years back and where she stands now. That was immensely motivating for me. Thirdly, the fact that I was still able to keep up with my routine is making me cheery.
What we accomplished:
1)Got back to writing
2)Binge-read a five-part book and COMPLETED! (Yayyy!)
3)Sticking to the routine (With all sincerity)
4)Managing to stay positive (Despite the pessimistic voice in my head telling me that things are not going good when everything's right on track)
That's it for now, not for the week.
