Starting Life Anew

After a week of mourning and using cartooning and bible scriptures to help myself emotionally cope with my uncle’s passing away, I wished to start life anew this week.  I started my running practice again, made 3 short morning runs over the week, the associated endorphins generated seemed to help.  I also started a new daily routine of practicing calligraphy and reproducing (animal) photo portraits with my brush pen, the solitude while indulging in art also seemed to help.

I also joined fellowship again after skipping it last week.  Many b/s seemed to be concerned about me and asked if I was okay, I don’t know how to respond other than saying I was okay.  Frankly, I think I’m ok other than being more quiet and seemed to be lost in my thoughts more often than usual.  I’m confident that time would heal.

I’m more worried about my aunt, she and my uncle were inseparable.  Our family met up with her this afternoon to see how we can help out with the coming funeral next week.  My aunt seemed a lot better than before, at least there were no more tears.  But she would still go on and on once she started talking about my uncle.  My aunt still misses my uncle a lot, as expected.  Time shall heal, though it will definitely take a lot more time for my aunt.
