is so nice. i've had a few days to myself this week, and it's made me realize how much energy i absorb from the people around me and the noise it creates when trying to listen to my own needs.
more alone time from now on!
Being able to chat all day is a gift in many ways (connection with others, being an interesting person, etc) but it can be so gratifying to finally be alone and notice how the cacophony has died out.
i go to sleep practically convulsing with excitement that i get to eat my oatmeal in the morning i promise i have a deeply interesting life i really do but my oatmeal ritual has brought me a level of joy from the mundane i cannot fully comprehend
