A restoration of appreciation.
Pre-Covid life was full of so many highs the normal everyday moments became my unappreciated norm. They started to feel like the expected norm, they lost value to me. The reality is I took much of that for granted. As hard as it was during those 318 days of abnormality, depression, loneliness and unrest (those not in Florida or Texas). I can see the realignment within myself manifesting into an even more intense focus full of gratitude, appreciation and balance.
The everyday moments of beauty I took for granted are on the fast track to being restored into moments and memories of appreciation and love. Pre-Covid I had been so focused on investing my valuable energy into my work, ambition and accumulation that I failed to invest my energy into relationships that mattered. It’s the recent beauty and growth in all that shittyness that I’m happy to find.
Taking care of myself is now priority number one starting with my emotional and mental health, followed by the deep meaningful relationships I am lucky to have and hopefully begin new ones. Yes, that's pretty much everything I’m zoned in on right now.
I’m hard at work rebuilding my relationships with my family and those closest to me. I’m thankful for long walks, my family and for those who are no longer around. The magical part of all this is that Pre-Covid “Alberto” would have never been able to produce the type of work I’m currently involved with. Soon come.
Thank you universe for the realignment.
