Snooze

I start my morning with a snooze button. Or rather, being kind to oneself through 5 more minutes. It’s okay. As Billy Joel frames it in Vienna.

Then I dive into learnings and insights. I tend to forget but at least make an effort to relearn and rediscover as I go. Maybe that’s what life is – a process of remembering and replaying, and ultimately – trying. To be better, to be kind, to be human.

Then I got transported – through words, music, meetings, even food. The flavors of the day captured by the ticking of the clock, anxieties and maybes, and mostly showing up. It matters.

And yes, at times there’s a tendency to wonder what I’m actually here for. But though I don’t know the answer still today I seed hope at my doorstep, reframe perspectives, and realize though at times I feel lost, not all is.
