Quiet Inside

Today has been really good.

My brain has been quiet. When that happens, I try to do a few things…really soak it in, and remind myself that the bad days aren’t my fault. Because I know when those days come, they’ll feel like my fault. Saying it to myself now, when things feel still, helps me remember later when the noise returns.

I got more housework done than I expected, and afterward, I had one of the best naps of my life. Now my wife is napping, and I snuck off to the store to surprise her with homemade shrimp alfredo for dinner.

I try not to think this, but I can’t help it sometimes, I wonder what my life could look like if most days felt this good inside of myself.

Ta ta for now. 🤍
