Another hard - stressed out by people in a place I am theoretically suppossed to relax, interupted sleep via same parties returning at 4am, woke again early had to get up and move this time shower etc and walked into city.
Went to get breakfast, and dropped into medical centre nearby to enquire about dental there, after some questions and debate over eligibility to waive fee because my address is not meeting the criteria but actual circumstances technically make me homeless, didn't take long to be seen and in about 20 minutes they removed a decayed broken tooth that had been a problem for a while not painful but being left there may have caused other problems.
Starting to get feeling back and its incredibly painful, though that will subside after a day or so and now can clean up infection resulting from leaving this in place.
Point being the stress of the previous night contributed to me getting up and getting it done, still upset and uncomfortable with a few things but at least something productive came of it.
There has been an emphasis lately in church on endurance/perseverence, had trouble seeing the point really seems like I am going through things pointlessly and not deep down seeing that in time it will be worth it, little things like this help though it is hard to focus beyond pain.
I know everyone goes through hard times and many don't speak up, it is important to have support around you, let some people know and don't be afraid to ask for help, it may not fix your problems but having them around and just aware, likewise taking note of those around us and what is going on for them, can make the difference between sticking in through circumstances and giving up.
