Time Blindness

Somehow, we have moved into a new week. May is more than halfway done. Impending stress over debts and work, and relationships mounts with every passing day. Yet my brain is stuck, refusing to believe it isn't still the start of the year. Paralyzed by a mounting To-Do List designed to help, but just plunges deeper into fear and panic.

May should bring flowers, but right now I feel strangled by weeds. Not believing the sun has set so many times, and I'm still tangled near the starting line, in a race where the finish line keeps moving or disappearing.

The only real answer is to dare to stumble. Dare to ignore my pristine plans and dreams, and allow something a little messier and awkward to ramble out. Dare to crawl a little while pulling off each obstacle slowly but surely.

I can't believe it is closer to June than the start of May.
