Mental Health Writer & Editor
When I get anxious and sad at night, I know a solution is to go to bed. Things always feel better in the morning. When I get anxious and sad in the winter, I don’t know the solution. I do know that things always feel better in the spring.
And that is something.
Rest is something every creature needs.

Yeah girl. I absolutely feel this. Right now it feels like it will never thaw. But it will. We just have to be with what is.
I do know you melted a lot of ice around my heart on Sunday, so thank you!
Being with what is is so smart and so hard. We just have to keep plugging along. I’m glad we could brighten each other’s days at the hand lettering class. 🙂
