I need to allow myself to be comforted and take a juicy break from the “new”. I need to go ahead and talk about that. I need to connect with sources, give myself slivers of quiet time, and genuinely speak to what I do and do not know. I need to be specific with what I do know. I need to draw the line with what I do not. I need to be kind to all parties including my own human self. I need take some breaks and designate spaces for quiet and decide certain things.

I think the daily act of writing is already making me more honest, more accountable to who I want to be, where I am going, and how these things fit together. It allows me to acknowledge and name my own areas. Then I share these areas.
