January Missive
I have spent the last month scrambling — a messy end to a year I’m not sad to see the end of. December was a heady mixture of life admin, party planning, and medical hiccups, all while renewing my efforts to meet an extended deadline. As it stands, I have two more weeks of grace, and I know I can deliver, if I keep my head down and focus.
But if life has taught me anything this year, it’s that time, energy, and focus are only half of the equation. The other half is… everything. The other half is midnight calls to the ER and impromptu catch ups with friends who are celebrating. It’s holding a loved one’s hand as they slip away from you, and bitter coffees the morning after. It’s pain and joy and exhaustion, and pushing through anyway, and the consequences that come from that.
But I am so close now. And whatever the individual moments that come, all we can do is choose.
So look. Here is a moment.
And here, another.
And another.
So go on. Close this post and turn off your screen. Take up your pen or your brush, your tools or your loved ones. There is work to be done — but the truth is “done” is not the important part. What matters far more is simply that you begin.
The moment is now.
