i like what ur friend said abt reframing things as watering plants all at the same time ... and i like too the idea of plants bc they take the time they need to take, even if u are only watering one at a time . some things are just like that i think . i used to ask myself questions like , what if i just did X for a little bit every day ? probably the trajectory of my life would change a great deal

right... and different plants require different care guides... i would love to own all the plants in da world but i just know some would end up dying under my wing bc idk how to properly maintain all of em~!!! so maybe we start with the succulents before we get the pothos and philodendron, eventually working my way up to a monstera or a cute fern

Kels, this is SO well written. I'm navigating such similar opposing forces and hearing how you're navigating it brought so much clarity/a sense of relief that I'm not the only one feeling existential af LOL

Especially loved the focus + timeline portion - it's heartbreaking to say no to all of the exciting potential things to delve into and can be hard to prioritize, but reframing it through a "timeline lense" and something you can come back to is so comforting.

THANK U FOR WEARING UR HEART ON UR SLEEVE <3
