Looking back on these past few years, it’s suddenly hit me how little I’ve actually done. Not in terms of things I’ve achieved but have literally done. I know we had Lockdown after Lockdown which does put a crimp on a social life in a lot of ways. And yeah, there wasn’t much we could do about that. But now that things are opening up again I’m gonna do more than just binge Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime.

It’s tempting to me to fall back on the old…well…fallbacks and just hit up my usual haunts of gaming cafes and shops which are pretty much my comfort zone if I’m being honest. One thing I wanted very much to do before the first lockdown was take in a few sessions of Bhuddist meditation. Not just with a small meditation group but in an actual Bhuddist temple. That I think is going to be the next step of exploring the more faith based side of that. One thing most people don’t know about me is I don’t a specific faith. I have faith I guess you could say, faith in general. But I’m starting to have questions from my own reading and research I think I need a more in person experience to answer. Plus it will be something I’ve not done and that’s what this is all meant to be about, doing new and different things.

That doesn’t mean I’m gonna take up Skydiving or Bungee Jumping; I’m not that adventurous or brave. Really I’m not. Yet I’m looking to push myself and actually put myself out there socially. Meet new people, that’s really the key. And that means dating as well. I’ve relied too long on online dating and apps. I want to get out and meet people in person. That’s gonna be the plan. There will be hiccups along the way but I’m gonna keep moving forward.
