OK here we go - another battle - and then the battle within the battle which has to do with surviving anxiety and insomnia. Yeah, a little bit validated by some irl people but also stretched by others.

Remember that the nutshell, the joy of creating safety and sanity... the occasional reflection from others about what is really important... trees, wood, nuggets, and plain old stubbornness... breathe!

Surprisingly what helps to hold me together is the smallest sense of responsibility to other people - that it makes a difference to their life if I'm - just a little bit - positive. That and the odd moment of compassion.
