Gray

I feel utterly gray and empty inside, and am stuck at my soul-numbing temp job for another 2+ hours.

Morale-raising messages and objects of beauty -- images, poetry, etc. -- would be most welcome.

I've been doing self-help, but most of the energy just drains down the gray vortex.

ETA: Getting out for a walk in the sunshine and crisp air helped a lot. I don't feel like I'm dying inside anymore. . . .

I second the taking a bit of a zip outside for some fresh air, and for the reinforcing of your personal shields and boundaries ... setting them so that only the good, true and beautiful gets in. Then you can continue the job, and it won't be able to soul suck. It might be tedious or heartwrenching, but it won't be able to get your power.

Heading outside for my break right now. I'll try to reinforce my shields while I'm outside. . . but I think the core issue is deeper than the job. . .
