The past days have been exhausting. Unexpected events brought me to this situation I thought I have always been in control of.
Surprises. The worst of them came to me recently. They make me want to shut down all my senses – my mind incapable of any thought, of any question; my heart numb to any emotion, my ears deaf to the painful truth my friends have to say to make me wake up, my memory failing to remember that night I read those sad words of an ending.
