Days when I couldn't do anything... I realized 'that's okay too'
“Wow~
I couldn't do a single thing all day today~~💦”
The “things I needed to do” were in my head,
yet my body wouldn't move...
Don't you have days like that❓
Today (or was it yesterday?), that was exactly me.
✔️I tried to open note, but couldn't.
✔️I couldn't even go check out the posts of people I wanted to read.
✔️I couldn't cross off a single thing on my task list.
✔️Even though it's been on my mind, nothing has moved forward.
When I have days like that, I feel a sense of unease deep in my chest.
“I slacked off again.”
“Am I just going to keep letting myself get away with this?”
“Maybe my readers will drift away.”
Even if I tell myself “it's okay” in my head,
my heart blames me anyway.
……It gets scary, doesn't it😱
Today, you know,
I went to lunch with a friend.
We laughed a lot over aimless chatter🌸
After I got home, I got completely absorbed in a Chinese drama; I had only planned to watch one episode, but before I knew it, it was already night.
At first, I thought like I did at the beginning,
“I really messed up, me⤵️”
but then,
“Wait! When I really think about it, I was having a lot of fun today,”
I was able to change my perspective🎵
In that moment,
these words suddenly crossed my mind:
“If I don't enjoy my own life,❣️
if I'm not living and enjoying it, then what I want to convey on note won't get across, right?”
That realization didn't completely erase my anxiety, though.
But my heart felt just a little bit lighter.
“It was okay to have today like this.”
I was able to think that quietly☘️
Even if I'm not perfect,
even if I haven't moved forward,
even if I haven't been useful to anyone,
the fact that I “had fun” validates today✨✨
And now, I'm writing this realization on note.
Because I want to reach someone who is feeling the same way.
I want you, who is feeling a little anxious, to notice.
You can turn a day where you couldn't do anything into a “good day”🌱
Because it's just a matter of acknowledging it yourself.
When do you think, “Today was a good day”❓
