I had planned to go to the gym today, to attempt to get back into going, however, when I woke up my knee was aching, it still doesn’t feel 100% right yet so decided it was probably best not to push it too early before it’s had time to fix itself & the inflammation has reduced.
I was at the uni today and as lots of people are on annual leave for Easter it was pretty quiet. I finished early to take some hours back that I was due and met a friend in town to visit Gaia which is currently installed in a local museum.

It was simply stunning, we could have sat and stared at it for hours, it was slowly rotating as soft music played in the background. Makes you realise how beautiful our home is and how small we all are on it! The challenges I’ve been facing recently pale into insignificant when I realise there is a whole world outside of my little world & how if I just focus on what I can do for good with the skills I have then my challenges might just shrink and disappear!!
After seeing Gaia, will probably go and see it a few more times before the installation finishes we went to a local cafe for coffee and cake which was delicious. Lovely to catch up a friend who is also a work colleague before I headed back to the uni to do a bit more work and then home.
This evening I’ve been reflecting on some of the comments I’ve had from my blog post yesterday on the subject of love and self-love! It’s interesting to hear friend’s perspective on it and their words of wisdom in helping me to achieve self-love.
