I didn’t see the stars rain down last night, but I watched the sun rise. Whether you are up late or early, take the best parts and claim them for your own. Do the small things to grow sanity, peace, happiness, allow your heart to be full. You are the one in control of all of it. Let other people help you, you don’t need a solo show. Things will get neglected, laundry, floors, the dishes and that is okay. Give yourself permission to just be.
When your plate is full, eat what you can and scrape it into the garbage. Rinse your plate, let other people be your dishwasher. Chew your own food, there is nothing wrong with letting someone else help you clean it up. It means nothing to give up control and check all the boxes, it isn’t an exam, it’s not cheating to get help. My hope is everyone has a ying to your yang. It doesn’t have to be a partner, go external, a friend, aunt, cousin, professional.
My heart and mind buckets are full. Sometimes the buckets get spilled and you have to determine what the best method is to fill them. If you are not being real with yourself, you can’t pinpoint the problem. If the bucket is filled with dirty water, change the water. It is easy to get stuck, hyper focused, and have tunnel vision. It is okay to break out of this spiral with help. Let someone else rinse your plate.
