Today, I felt seen...

I've got a task in front of me that I know intellectually is not difficult, but it is tedious, and I've been avoiding it like a mofo. How hard have I avoided it? I contemplated deep-cleaning my bathroom for 20 minutes to avoid even looking at my computer, which is a self-sabotaging strategy. And just when I felt overwhelmed by my personal incompetence? Bam. This image in my feed. It's not just me. It's all of us. And the image broke me from my cleaning plans (thank goodness!) and helped me recognize and own what I was doing, and gave me space to refocus and finally tackle the tedious task. Go me!
