Small Things, Out of Proportion

These days, small things that I would previously have handled easily, seem challenging.

This morning, my credit card was rejected; I happened to be in town, near my bank and headed there for help. It was sorted out for me.

But I felt really panicked, as if this was a disaster. I seem to be 'sensitized', almost waiting for the next bad news to hit. Right now, the universe feels very unsafe. I suppose this kind of reaction is to be expected in these early days of looking for my new 'normal', whatever that might be.
