Tears welled up in my eyes reading the frog and toad excerpt. This allowed me to reflect on the deep loneliness I feel, resentment for being on my own, isolated when the day of constant interactions, distractions, and filling the needs of other closes. When I shut my apartment door for the last time in the evening. Maybe I’m not lonely, just deeply craving the knowing that someone cares for me, or wants to know I’m ok, a selfish craving to be on someone else’s mind.
Next step is letting myself take the time to know what I want to plant, not for work, not for the restaurants, or the hypothetical opportunities I could conjure by responding to emails or editing late at night. It’s funny how I’d rather work than ponder my dreams long enough to allow myself to fully commit to them.
