Uncomfty
It's how my little one used to tell me thev were uncomfortable
I feel uncomfty now
Like mv nerves are sticking out from my skin
And touching the space around me
But the space is filled with tiny, razor blade particles
Like the air is electrified
I breathe in, and it ZAPS my lungs
You can feel it
I know you can
The pressure of an impending cataclysm
What's coming?
We don't really know
All we know is it's going to be bad
I'm trying to keep my head intact, here
Telling myself
It's going to get so bad
That the only option left
Will be for things to turn around and get really good
Like. better than they've ever been
That's how I'm staying sane
Resilient, right?
We've been through so much
We can handle it. probably
We'll just suffer
And then we'll be okay
Hey
We have each other
We'll be okay

Happy 1st bday to this still relevant piece o my brain.
It was a good reminder this morning that none of us is alone. We can reach out and we can be there for each other. 🫶🏻
