Dear Javairia:

Good to read from you! I am as fine as I can be, given the pandemic, civil unrest, fires and having a dictator-in-the-making as president, where I live.

Congratulations for your first day in school! Be as calm as you can be in regard to your exams and uni application, take little breaks when you get too stressed, and talk calmly to yourself (out loud or silently) on a regular basis. Don’t worry about not posting here every day, or every week- post whenever you want to, whenever you feel like it.

“I hope you’re doing good yourself before putting in time for me”- putting time for you just made me smile (still smiling), this means that I am being good to me when I put time for you!
