My Week #143 - Depressing November

Name one thing more depressing than November!

It is pretty difficult for me to summarize this week. It wasn't the most exciting and breaking week of my life. It was not relaxing, it was not covered with stress and other emotions. Just a week to forget. Yes, I made some progress in terms of the apartment finishing. I did physical activities on a nearly daily basis. We had a nice time with family and friends. However, if I had to summarize this week with one word I would use ordinary.

This is kinda surprising keeping in mind that we are in the middle of the so-called November depression. Years pass by and November is the toughest month, typically with a lack of sun and lots of rain and darkness. Surprisingly, this November brings a slightly different weather, with a bit of sun & a lack of rain.

Definitely, it helps my mind to stay in this ordinary mode, without diving deep into the depression.

This week I learned that our brain operates in one of four modes - productive, stressed, burned out, and relaxing. It is our duty to make sure we apply relaxing mode when needed as the brain (and the body) can regenerate. I should consider an ordinary week as one related to regeneration.

This makes me think that I should be grateful for weeks like that, right?
