> This is all to say this: right now, it’s really hard. Everyone’s baseline is already at fight-or-flight. Everyone is going through it. More than before. So it is ok if you’re not living your normal life, or having your normal reactions. It’s ok if the same things that you used to do are having different outcomes. Have some grace with yourself. Find a break wherever you can. I’m playing a lot more music. An hour at the piano keyboard is an hour away from the computer keyboard. Find your break, take a rest, and try to calm your nervous system. Even if there’s a calico cat biting your arm.
