When I am experiencing change (starting a new job), disappointment (not getting that thing my heart so desired), and/or crisis/grief/loss (my loved ones or my own), my anxiety goes into over drive, and I become overwhelmed by my own thoughts. All of these things are happening right now. Before sleeping yesterday and Tuesday, I gave myself goals.
They're little things. Though they are seemingly insignificant, they make my world just a little more manageable and peaceful. Making a list and checking things off feels so empowering. No, I did not mark them all off today or yesterday, but that's okay too.
From #theinvisiblelifeofaddielarue:
"How do you walk to the end of the world? she once asked. And when Addie didn’t know, the old woman smiled that wrinkled grin, and answered.
One step at a time."
P.S.: I'm totally giving myself bonus points for doing dishes today too. 🤷🏿♀️🤪 AND, I WILL journal before bed.
