Breakey Blips

By ElizabethB

A quiet walk

After visiting Centrelink, the social security office, and hating every second of it. After spending 2 hours containing my rising temper and emerging grief in front of blank faced women. After struggling with the government computer system that is slow, and requires multiple re entries of data because it crashes. After hitting a dead end through my lack of banking details. After being steered to update family details instead of talking about how to deal with disability and carer's allowances.

After it all, I did the best thing possible... I took the dog for a walk along the river. For a quiet, soul recovery walk.
Ahhh.
