Take breaks if needed

Hey all. As much as I have and will try to stay away from geopolitics, I wanted to drop a line real quick to remind you of how important it is to take breaks from social media, from the news, and from being bombarded by bad news all the time.

This doesn’t mean to ignore what’s happening or what you have going on from an activist or just a normal human being. What I mean is that taking a few minutes here and there to unplug can be and will be very beneficial to you.

And no, I don’t mean that you should do that by reading my blog or listening to my podcast or even watching Arsenal highlights or whatever. I meant to take a break to sit with whatever it is your feeling and feel it. Process it for as long as you need, want or can. You owe that to yourself.

If you choose to not do that and AWFC is your escape, like it is for me, then I would encourage you to not let the results get to you too much. Life is hard enough as it is with so much stuff going on that putting so much of your life into what the girls do or don’t do is unfair to you.

Now, regarding the match tomorrow, I don’t really have much to say other than I forgot completely that there are groups and I assumed it was knockout already. Shows how much I actually know.

I expect Beth to start, actually, and Stina, Sabrina and Kyra as well.

I’m also hopeful that some players get a few min off, like Katie, Lia and Kim.

Not sure this is the season to make reliable predictions but I’m assuming a good old 5-0 would be quite nice.
