I know when you're going through a crappy time it's pretty hard to see the good stuff in life, but try to remember that nothing lasts forever, which means eventually, the bad times will be over and the good times will roll in :3
I know that's not very helpful, and I really suck at remembering that myself xD but still! I hope your year ends up getting better at some point, especially since we're only in the first quarter of it :3
Aww, thanks x3 That's such a sweet thing to say! You deserve plenty of happiness yourself :3 Funnily enough, I'm actually listening to the audiobook version of Derren Brown's 'Happy' at the moment. I listen for like an hour in bed before I go to sleep cos it helps me relax + is ridiculously interesting!
It's pretty much just a huuuge book of different tips that helped him become more content/deal with life easier, that he hopes might also be useful to others in some way. There's a lot of funny moments in there too, and I guess even people who don't know who Derren is would probably find some of it of us. I've always loved him ever since I first saw him on TV, haha. There's quite a bit about stoicism in there, which I knew nothing about before listening to the book! Funnily enough, I've since finished 'Happy' and have moved onto his more recent book, 'A Book of Secrets' haha. Which has more personal stuff from him in there like what happened with him and his family during Covid lockdown, but also again some helpful bits of info and advice about life and stuff!
