mereilinI was rereading some paper journal entries the other night and I noticed the perhaps not surprising theme that my writing was most upbeat on days when I felt most productive and accomplished. And, ironically, most prolific on days when I felt most useless and dissatisfied. (Ironic because of course nobody wants to read that self-pitying inkvomit.)
Yet, even though it's glaringly obvious that there is a simple solution to the cycle of disorganization, depression and anxiety, it's unbelievably difficult to implement. For starters, as anyone who has ever felt depressed knows without being told, it's much easier to wallow in the mire than it is to grab a shovel and start digging your way out of it. EVEN THOUGH the simple act of grabbing the shovel would lift much of the depression.
And speaking of shovels, the cat has apparently added his contribution to the morning's disorder. Better get moving.
