Dear Professor This Assignment Did Not Nourish My Fundamentally Curious Soul So I Did Not Do It No Penalty

Waiting until you feel “ready” to start is the biggest trap of all. The perfect moment simply doesn’t exist.

We tell ourselves things like: “I need more experience,” “I’ll wait until I’m less busy,” or “I’m not good enough yet.” But these are just excuses to run from our fears.

anyway I love things like having independence, being intelligent, taking pride in my skills, not feigning incompetence, referring to myself as a woman instead of a girl, aging unapologetically, having pores, stretch marks, grey hairs, wrinkles and body fat, listening to my body's needs, eating as much as I need to satisfy my hunger, being bare-faced, wearing comfortable clothes, etcetera

Feel it cleanse your body and soul, or at least take away from you a little of the weight you carry within. Just focusing on it, on how nice it feels, and letting it caress you and take care of you somehow.

At times it's just not easy to get to it, but it can be good if you can give it a try. Even if it feels like a lot of effort.

my favorite coworker told me the scenario she thinks of to fall asleep is she stumbles upon a baby sheep and has to raise it and it grows up and she has to shear it and she says she envisions shearing it so carefully that she always falls asleep at that part
