I feel like I've just hit a brick wall, gone through, and now I'm standing on the other side, looking back, knowing I should pick up the bricks but knowing I'm under no obligation to.
So... what does this mean?
Well...
-My term as Branch Convenor of NLC Victoria is over. No more liability to my state, other than transition of new office bearers.
-It's a relief to be on the other side.
-It hurts because I rammed through that wall a little too fast and hard
-I'm not sure what do now - Sidhaesh is looking at me, saying I've got a very worried look on my face.
But... ... well... Yesterday's branch annual conference went well. I thought Victoria would die, and nobody would step up to take positions, but Doorshy nominated himself. And not only is he very very capable, he's also very experienced. I feel that I've left the organisation in very good hands. Besides that, he's also vegetarian.
But hmmm... I feel burned out.
To end on a more positive note, here's a little analogy I thought of...
Love.
When there's love between two people, it's like a big, hard, marble slab... perhaps pink marble, but marble nonetheless. It's smooth, so you can spill things on it, stomp on it, create a huge mess... and it'll look like it's beyond saving and you'll maybe cry a lot. But then, all you need to do is take a cloth and wipe it a little bit, and that marble slab is cleaned as if nothing had ever disturbed it's surface. That rock isn't going anywhere. That's love.
As I haven't updated in ages, here are some pictures from the past few months...
