I did not wake in a good brainstate today.

Sometimes the range of terrible things humans do to one another just knocks the whole narrative of life's charms away.

Everything can feel so flat & hopeless, & one can boggle at the idea that they ever thought otherwise, ever tried to build something more.

The brainstate will tell you it's being rational. Responding logically to new intel.

But the brainstate is a form of grieving.

Go gentle into your days, lovely ones, if you're in grief as well.
