Hi Sweethearts,
It felt about the right time to share some things that have gone on since I really last had any substantial presence on here; again, more-so to help me process things too. Also a warning that this contain some pretty triggering things.
My life fell apart last November when the person I was living with died suddenly. I rode over to where they were living during the week (for work) in a city over a few hills, after receiving a messages from a concerned friend around midnight, to find the worst....
A tough time came after then, with having to re-home myself as well as part ways with 2 dogs, 1 cat, 4 kittens and 3 chickens who we cared for to new families (it would be wrong to keep animals where I was moving). At this time I also encountered some extremely unpleasant people who took offense to me for not leaving my home immediately whilst trying to pick up the pieces and find somewhere else to live. Their efforts involved stigmatizing me in the local community resulting in threatening messages from neighbors and some of my late friend "friends".
Needless to say, I miss my friend who I loved dearly; the whole ordeal has shook me up in some pretty profound ways. I'm finding it difficult to move past this patch in my life but eager to do so. I am aware that some things will be with me forever.
I guess in other [happier] news, drawing is difficult as I've found it difficult to have the strength to do it for a while but I'm aiming to get back into the flow of it soon. Work is going alright although I need a break soon; I'm also coming towards the final stretch of my PhD so might end up being one of those soon (I do expect it to drag on for the best part of a year though)! ^.^ I'm picking up the violin again too and learning to enjoy life. I honestly don't know what I want to do after I get my doctorate but thankfully am not tethered to the company I am working for so might just do something completely different / silly.
Anyway, I know that might have been a bit heavy but appreciate it if you've taken the time to read though it. Life is pretty crazy and pretty stupid if you think about it, nether-less it's special so please be kind to each other and don't let anything stop you spreading love.
With horsey loves,
Ruby

We are all moving forward though, no matter how slowly. x
But it's our will to try and move forward as you said.
