Surreal Week

This has been a surreal week and today a surreal day. I feel like I am living my life in third person, detached and not particularly feeling any strong emotions.

Today a good friend of mine celebrates her 30th birthday. Today a close relative of a close friend was cremated. Today my canoe-mate broke the news that she is relocating to Australia. Today my platoon mate who has spent several years working abroad shared that she's contemplating whether to return home for good.

All these major life events are happening every moment, for one person or another. They will continue to unfold, even as I am not paying attention or too busy fighting my own fires and battles.
