Shout-out today to everyone trying to get by without completely giving up.
Lots still to do today re: teaching, editing, writing.
Then tomorrow I'm going on "walkabout" - taking the bus to the far side of the city, & walking back. Around 6 hours.
The fire in my heart is low.
I haven't been firing on all cylinders all summer (save for three weeks when I didn't eat, but that's... not something I can replicate long term!).
But where there's life, there's hope. Time to touch grass again. 👌#Soon
@MLClark Rest is necessary for growth, nothing can endure at speed forever.
It is my hope that a needed respite comes sooner rather than later. It can be so hard to endure when your reserves are exhausted and all you can see is more road ahead. That's been my experience at least.
I've been putting every bit of time I can get into scrubbing, cleaning and organizing for the self care as other challenges crowd in from the margins.
The dawn always comes, no matter the length of night.
