I made a decision this year that took my life in a different direction.
At the time it felt right. Looking back, I think part of it was wanting to feel needed. Looked up to. Appreciated.
I didn’t know what it would cost.
There’s no time left in the day anymore. I come home with nothing left to give to a canvas. The thing that actually makes me feel like me has been sitting untouched for weeks.
Maybe I’m just in the storm right now, and the storm isn’t the whole forecast.
But right now, tonight, this is what’s true. I’m not writing this for advice. I just needed to say it out loud.
