Witnessing people suffer in online videos or pics while scrolling is quite chilling. I can’t shake the thought that we are watching everyday people suffer so deeply and the difference in life experiences is so vast. We are literally behind the screen 😞 there is so much grief how do we bear it? I’m sorry fellow humans I’m so sorry. It feels like what we try to do is not enough — so much resistance. It’s too much and the fight is exhausting, but you are worthy of fighting for and speaking up about.

(Thinking of the ppl of Palestine, Congo, Haiti, and Sudan and all others known and unknown to us)

I think part of getting better is complete ego death. Like you’re not above setting a timer for 5 minutes and focusing on a task. You’re not above doing a very simple 3 minute workout to start. You’re not above reading for 10 minutes a day when you first get out of your reading slump, even if you used to read for hours. You’re not above starting slow and then building up to where you want to be/where you once were. What you are above is total inertia. Doing something really is better than doing nothing. Radically accept where you are, radically accept your limits, and go from there. Don’t let your ego get in the way.
