Thanks for your comments and condolences, Natalia!
Yeah, life comes with a lot of challenges, sometimes it seems as it’s a series that will never end.
But your insight about “haters” goes quite to the point.
People who criticize always do it from their own perspective. While sometimes they could certainly be right (same as we), I feel it is also true that all of us tend to analyze out of our own weaknesses.
So the best way to healing is indeed through seeing other people, even if they come off as arrogant and hurtful, as someone who might have been hurt as well. Not taking it personally is a piece of great advice. If it is personal, it’s usually talking about that person who showers with nasty words.
Good luck with your travel blogging too!

Thanks for your comment!
Avocados will hopefully be transported to a land in coastal Croatia before summer.
Hopefully, some will spread solid roots, survive, and grow!

Thanks a lot, Susan!
