A little outing to clear my mind, see another side of the city. It had been a long time since I had been to this part of town. I used to go there mostly when I worked nearby. I realized that time has passed and everything has changed. Businesses that were once thriving are now closed, replaced by new establishments, but more of the same, nothing innovative. Sad but true.
On this outing, I was also looking for healthy food. As we all know, food is expensive here, as is health care. Both are equally costly, and finding what we're looking for is a luxury that not all of us can afford. Anyway, as I always say, you do what you can with what you have.
Today I walked a lot, something I rarely do, and I know I shouldn't, but well, it helps me to distract myself, see a different environment, stretch my legs, and check out places where they sell cheaper, or at least compare prices, looking for where they sell what I need and can eat, but above all, buy.
It's sad, but I have to tell you that everything I earn here, I use to buy my food. It's the only thing I've been able to do. I still have to get the tests done that the doctor ordered. I can't do both. I feel frustrated, and I want to write these lines to let it out. I know I have to have faith and keep going. It's not easy, believe me, I try every day to to give it my best. I don't know where I'm going wrong, what I'm paying for, but anyway, nothing, let's move on and keep going.
At least I got out for a while, walked, breathed, and now I'm back in the game, continuing, still fighting, because we can't give up, right?
Thank you for reading, have a great weekend...
SPANISH VERSION
Salidita para despejar la mente, ver otro lado de la ciudad, hace mucho que no recorrĂa esta parte, iba mĂĄs que todo cuando trabajaba por allĂ, me di cuenta de que el tiempo ha pasado, y todo ha cambiado, negocios que antes eran prĂłsperos, hoy en dĂa, estĂĄn cerrados, nuevos locales, pero mĂĄs de lo mismo, nada innovador, triste pero cierto.
En esta salida, tambiĂ©n andaba en bĂșsqueda de mis alimentos saludables, como bien sabemos, aquĂ la comida cuesta, asi como la salud, ambas son igual de costosas, y conseguir lo que buscamos, es un lujo, que no todos podemos darnos, en fin, como siempre digo, se hace lo que se puede, con lo que se tiene.
Hoy camine bastante, algo que muy pocas veces hago, y sĂ© que no deberĂa, pero bueno, me sirve para distraerme, ver otro ambiente, estirar las piernas, y tantear sitios, donde vendan mĂĄs econĂłmico, o por lo menos ir comparando precios, buscando donde venden lo que necesito y puedo comer, pero sobre todo comprar.
Es triste, pero debo decirles, que todo lo que genero aquĂ, lo uso para comprar mi comida, es lo Ășnico que he podido hacer, aĂșn tengo pendiente hacerme mis exĂĄmenes que me mando el mĂ©dico, no puedo con ambas, me siento frustrada, y quiero dejar estas lĂneas para soltar esto, sĂ© que debo tener fe y continuar, no es fĂĄcil, crĂ©anme lo intento, todos los dĂas, dar lo mejor de mĂ, no sĂ© en quĂ© estoy fallando, que estoy pagando, pero bueno, nada, para adelante y ya, hay que seguir.
Al menos salĂ un rato, camine, respire y aquĂ vuelvo al ruedo, a continuar, a seguir batallando, porque no podemos rendirnos, Âżverdad.?
Gracias, por si me llegaste a leer, feliz finde...
