S is for Something

I saw a quote today that really spoke to me about life right now. Everything feels uncertain and it is hard to know what to do next at times.

“Do something today that your future self will thank you for.”

Sean Patrick Flanery

I saw this and I thought, one thing. I can do one positive thing each day.

Maybe it is going for a walk or some other form of exercise. Maybe it is reading a good book or doing a craft for a few minutes. Maybe it is cleaning out a drawer or a shelf.

Maybe it is snuggling with Snake while we watch a TV show or movie that we both enjoy. Or going to our dance lesson and just focusing on us.

In my weird brain, everything has to be big. I have to finish the whole closet or write 5 blog posts or something else. Finish it or don’t start it. So, guess what happens? I don’t start it. And the cycle continues.

So, I’m going to work on doing a thing that will allow me to look back and say, “Yes, it was really good that I did that. It was a good thing, you accomplished something and it was enough.” And then start again tomorrow.
