my self talk has changed it’s tune. maybe that’s a temporary delusion, but…
instead of my daily routine seeming like a millstone i shouldnt have to drag, it’s- this is the way. this is what normal, healthy ppl do to stay that way. i’ve been doing this for a long time, i’ll do it for a long time still. i’ll hold on as long as i want to hold on.

yoga and singing lessons got me this far. but i’ve been dying to get out and sing w ppl. i made a friend who has a song circle every month. i went once and havent been up to it since. she’s gonna drag me soon, tho. great lady. bunch of old folkie hippies.
