You’re looking at a cup of coffee that was enjoyed without interruption. And part of my summer to do list behind it.

Yes, I take on too much. I know this about myself. I’ve always attributed it to equating performance with belonging. Or my irrational fear of death. Either way, I don’t need to stay busy to feel important or enoughable or alive anymore. But this many years of practice creates habits. Pathways that look like ant trails across my body. Trails that suggest that being busy is just who I am.
