“...anxiety is vilified,
underrated,
for its value
and benefits.
Those with anxiety can be
more thoughtful about all the possibilities
that might play out,
more prepared for threatening situations,
more empathetic to others' feelings
(whether overtly expressed or not).”

“There are so many ways to relieve the anxiety,
and we cannot function if we don't find
one of those ways,
one that distracts, relieves,
and leaves you better off than before
not worse, and self-loathing...
We know not what storms are coming.”

“There is power in continuing to work
to strive
to serve
to love
to do good
to clean up from bad
to rest
to question
to try to find balance
even when the purpose is unclear,
even when the value is murky,
even when you can't see the path forward
and there's no end in sight.
There is power in effort.
There is power in persistence.
There is power in
Continuing on.”

“I love seasons...
But, I must admit--
at the risk of offending the others--
autumn is my very favorite one,
as all masks and fancy costumes turn fire
and then are shorn,
when all illusions fall away,
and the beauty of stark reality is fully
revealed.”

“I take an odd kind of comfort in the fact
that in history--
although people have died,
countries have been destroyed,
civilizations have fallen--
life itself has continued on...
Are we doing what we need to do to save ourselves,
to save our civilization?
Are we doing what we need to do to live and create
and love fully now?”
