It was cloudy, but now sunny, though I can’t tell you for sure the sky itself isn’t divided in half between the two. Even the sky can be of two minds.

Apparently.

Lately, it feels like we’re in a room and the ceiling is getting lower and lower and yet we go about living normal or normalish lives as the world gets smaller.

Don’t look up.

Definitely don’t look up.

I don’t know if it’s weird to you but it’s certainly weird to me.

I’ve got stuff going on in my smaller world and we have stuff going on in the bigger world, and it does make me think about how, in human existence, there’s always something.

Frying pan/fire situations.

But I don’t know how many frying pan/fires we’re down now, like a ladder of them, a column that extends and extends and extends.

I guess this is one of those days where I can’t be truly present here, where I can’t be truly present anywhere, my brain is running and running on its tiny hamster wheel. Around and around it goes.

This isn’t sounding terribly wisdomy so far, is it? Which is fair, as today I do not feel particularly wise.

I think it’s a breath-catching day, though they seem to be happening with more frequency lately. But also sometimes the terrain is rougher and we’ve been at it longer. A marathon is a marathon, especially when you don’t know how long it’s going to be.

How low the ceiling will go.

How many more frying pan/fires we’ve got.

If nothing else, today is certainly jam-packed with metaphors, I’d say.

It’s a day for logistics, for making plans B, C, D, and perhaps all the way out to X, if we have to. It’s a day for taking stock, for shedding that which doesn’t serve us, for maximizing that which does.

It’s yet another day to acknowledge we are all doing the best we can with what we have, and you should say that to yourself right now.

“I am doing the best I can with what I have.”

And say it again and believe it. Because even if it doesn’t feel like your best, that’s because it’s the best you have to offer at the moment.

And this is the best I have to offer at the moment, so with that, I wish you a wonderful Wednesday.

Buy me a cup of coffee!
