My current tasks do not trigger dopamine 🫣 And I think I just flexed English spelling? 🙈

Can't start work right now
Struggeling with dopamine
Energy Drinks help

You Think Too Much | Jaylin Cabales, Rainier Camina

Don‘t mind me, just another evening of overthinking. It‘s what I do best. 🙃😌🤯

Can‘t turn off my brain,
feel like I‘m going insane;
I tried, but in vain.

julesG 🫂🫂 You're not alone. I woke up at 6am and have been overthinking since. I could have slept. 😭 9h

JenlovesJT47 @julesG I‘m sorry. 🫂🫂 Hope your day gets better and you can get some rest. Overthinking is the worst. You are not alone. 🩵💙🩵💙🩵 9h

julesG Unfortunately, I was overthinking a weekend trip and the packing thereof. That spiralled easily. Well, I've got most things packed and made a list of what needs to be packed and what needs to be done before I leave tomorrow. 😉 Luckily it's a public holiday in my part of Germany and I might be able to nap later. 9h

Jari-chan @julesG Making lists also helps me when I feel overwhelmed. I hope you'll get some rest 💖 8h

AnnCrystal Perhaps try visualizing two images at the exact same time (e.g. a rabbit eating a carrot and a kangaroo hopping along). Individual, separated images at exactly the same time.

Or perhaps, try air drawing. Imagine drawing images with your eyes only. As simple or as detailed as you want.

My explanation for this Haiku follows in commets

👇

AnnCrystal Ravens and Crows have a bad reputation.

Well it's true that some people use their Medicines for bad, or their form is used by those who are negative (like Skinwalkers or daemons), the true essence of Ravens and Crows are not evil.

Many Native American Indigenous tribes hold Ravens and Crows in high esteem for various reasons.

A Trickster personality with powerful “good“ Medicine.

👇 13h

AnnCrystal Understandably, these birds are naturally weary of humans...and if betrayed, Ravens and Crows do not easily forgive.

Yet, be friendly by not angrily chasing them away, adding the larger nuts to your bird feeder, or humming a delightful song whenever you see one of these birds could begin earning you friendship...not just with the ones you personally encounter, but with Ravens and Crows for miles around and generations of them to come.

👇 13h

AnnCrystal Because these birds share information about both foes and friends with each other and with their offsprings.

So, if you begin being nice to your neighborhood Ravens and Crows...DON'T try to pet them or feed them by hand...just be “nice“ and you may earn their friendships.

👇 (edited) 13h

AnnCrystal These birds may even begin sensing when you need them around.

Ravens and Crows can sense energies, they are drawn by energies.

It's one of the things that give these birds a bad reputation. Good or bad energies, they are drawn by it.

👇 13h

AnnCrystal If you are feeling lonely, invisible, depressed, or sad... sometimes local Ravens or Crows will fly over to lend you some of their medicines. And if you are lucky enough, they will share their greatest of medicines by giving some good natured humor or by Ravens gifting the sound of their laughter.

They also want to celebrate with you, or just check up on you and say hello...so always keep an eye out.

👇 (edited) 13h

AnnCrystal Long explanation shortened, I wrote this Haiku from my American Indigenous cultural prospective 😉✍️🐝💝. (edited) 13h

dabbe Your words in the haiku and after helped me to learn! I love to learn! I adore ravens and crows and always try to chat pleasantly with them when I see one. Poe's “The Raven“ is in my top five fave poems of all time. 🖤🐦‍⬛🖤 13h

JenlovesJT47 So cool! Thank you for sharing!! 🐦‍⬛🩵💙🩵💙🩵🐦‍⬛ 13h

Eggs So unique! Birds do appear to us at unusual times as if they were secretly summoned🐦‍⬛🐦🦅 13h

JenlovesJT47 You also see a lot of ravens as familiars in books about witches. Makes sense! 12h

AnnCrystal @dabbe 💝🐝💝🐝💝. I love to hear that you chat with them too! My mom and I chat with our garden critters all the time.

Ravens and Crows are simply amazing, smart, creative birds. It was years before I heard the laugh of a Raven in real life, it overjoyed me with utter delight.

Love Poe, and his Raven 📚✍️💝. It was the first of his works that I encountered when a kid.

💝🐝💝🐝💝. (edited) 12h

AnnCrystal Thanks @JenlovesJT47 🥰 I'm glad you enjoyed 🐝💝🐝💝. 12h

AnnCrystal @Eggs 😘 birds are simply magical. Some legends say that Ravens and Crows are among the birds who can bring loved ones (who have journeyed on) for a visit. There are endless legends, but this is a favorite of mine 🐝💝🐝💝...they may also have messages to deliver. (edited) 12h

AnnCrystal @JenlovesJT47 there are, good and bad witches depending on the story. 🪄📚💝. (edited) 12h

JenlovesJT47 Very true! My favorite witch series is the Practical Magic series. One of the books is set during the witch trials and a raven was her familiar. (She was a good witch!)

Magic Lessons: A Prequel to Practical Magic

AnnCrystal @JenlovesJT47 that is epic! I'm keeping my eye out for that series...love magical books with witches 😉👌🪄📚💝. 12h

#HaikuADay #HaikuHive

Still a day behind in my haikus but here is yesterday‘s inspired by the Okinawan Sweet Potatoes I was eating in my car. I‘m not a big sweet potato fan in general, but these purple beauties I love.

A slice in my hand
Creamy, perfectly purple
Quiet comfort food
