This is what healing looks like: blooming / reaching towards the light / falling into the sunset / ripping wings off and watching as they regrow / holding a paintbrush between teeth and painting the trees a glowing, hazy pink. And this is what healing looks like: nails painted with the ocean’s foam /  laughter like chocolate / a baby opening its eyes for the first time / the little hiccup when someone crying really hard stops / the watery smile after the last tear. And this is what healing looks like: purple / twined vines & stitched hearts / hands clutching / a plane landing / sky scrapers / paper cuts healing / the  smell of hospitals / reaching out to touch the stars / leaving the stars alone because there is enough wonder down here anyway / because there is enough wonder in just you alone anyway.

Wasting Time Isn’t Always Wasteful

When I’m relaxing and/or ‘wasting time’ watching a show or puttering around on the Internet, there’s sometimes this voice buzzing in the back of my mind telling me I should be doing something more productive, I should be studying something, I should be working out, or cleaning. This voice is helpful for nudging me get my day-to-day tasks done, but letting this voice stick around during my down time is harmful to relaxation and can make a soothing evening watching Star Trek (yes, I’m a Trekkie) into one where I feel subtly anxious and achy and I can’t put my finger on why I feel this way.

I usually feel this way because I leave that voice on. I have to reach up inside my mind and turn it off. Even if that means letting the laundry go undone, or not reading for the day. It’s okay to not chastise yourself for wanting to relax. 

Remember to keep your living space and yourself clean. Do your chores. Take care of yourself. When you do these things, devote yourself wholly to them. And when you decided you would like to relax, devote yourself wholly to that, too.
