Distractions

Distractions
All life has came into being
When did our hobbies turned into ones
And life lost it's meaning?

Distractions
Pick up your book and read
Scared to face the realities
We create a new one instead
Hoping we can run
From the world and ourselves

Distractions
Blast the music so loud
Left with aching ears and head
Trying to escape all the Voices
That speak aloud
Every time you lay in your bed

You'd rather stay alone
In your room
Turn on the same show
And click resume
Than to go out
Only to feel
There's no place
For you to be

Distractions
We wake up everyday and seek
But are Distractions
the way to live
Are we even alive?
Or just trying to breathe
Hoping one day these distractions
Will be our peace

I usually like fantasy, mystery, or romance titles but when I had a really bad episode and could barely get out of bed I needed something that would distract but not set me off, my sister gave me the book At Home in Mitford by Jan Karon. It’s a sweet simple series about a small town pastor. I’m not religious and this book is not preachy it’s just a comforting distraction with everyday people and problems without triggering content.
The audible is great as well. #Books #Distractions

For me plants mean a lot. Whenever I can, I go out in nature. Whenever I can't, I'm happy to be surrounded by the ones I got at home. They make me feel home, they are often the reason why I get up. They put a smile on my face even on bad days, when there is a new sprout to discover or a new leaf or a even a flower. My favourites are propagation and seeds. To just watch them growing. Plant projects always motivate me.

Okay friends, I often use reading as a distraction from my chronic pain and migraines. As I’m sure a lot of you guys do. I’m out of my to be read stack so I thought you guys might have some recommendations! I love mysteries, crime novels, and magic (elves, gnomes, wizards, etc.)
A couple of things I’ve read are
The Infernal Devices series by Cassondra Clare
The Lily Bard Mysteries by Charlaine Harris
The ABC series by Sue Grafton

Thanks in advance! ❤️
