When That Sad Feeling Overwhelms I Go Outside

My Midlife Journey

RV Fulltime nomad rides bike to get happy

I live a wonderful life out in nature, traveling in my RV and enjoying the quiet beauty. I truly can’t complain.

But sometimes I guess I do.

Sometimes life gets grab of you and takes you places you don’t want to be. The few weeks before this video I was feeling very lonely and down. I couldn’t figure out why for a while. I tried to fight it but, honestly, I eventually had to embrace the feelings, accept them and luckily I was able to literally “snap out of it”. I sure hope I don’t have to endure that again and I feel very deeply for those that never do or struggle constantly.

As I came back to my “normal” self I decided to speed up the healing with a simple bike ride through the forests of Flagstaff. Come along with me!

    Thanks for sharing this Allie, it truly resonates with me and I’m sure it does with many others. Your honesty and willingness to talk about real life issues is appreciated. Depression can be overwhelming and isolating. Sometimes sadness seems to silently creep up on us. Keep on sharing, making videos, and writing awesome encouraging posts!

    Take care, stay safe, and enjoy life moment by moment.

      Hi Jeni,

      Very true. I didn’t want to come online to sugarcoat life or my life for that matter. Life can be blissful and it can be horrid too.

      Thank you for your support and I wish you all the best in the world. Keep on smiling and feel the sun on your face.
