 "Hey, so you know how everything sucks? Let's focus on that. Yes, just that. Juuuuust the suck. Absolutely nothing else. And here, have a nice anvil to place on your chest, just to really rub it in.... Time? What's that? The days are going to blur like smoke. No sense trying to grab at it, it's already gone by the time you reach out." And such has been my life for the last few (insert spam of time here). Unfortunately, when anxiety flares up or my mind takes a nosedive right into a mixture of blank and chaotic, the posts here are pretty much the first thing to go in my routine. Oddly enough, I can always squeeze in Duolingo. 1,470 days. I think less than 8 of those are streak freezes. Maybe it's the death threats from that green owl that keep me going. But everything else? Out the window. I only have so many days to live. So why do I spend them so oblivious to their passing, consumed by the most ridiculous of "problems" and doing things that I straight up don't care about? Why do I let fear dictate my life? Moreover, why can't I let the nonsense go? My children have already been half taken away. Why should I spend the little time I have with them locked in endless disputes over petty things? Why should I allow my own fears to consume me and keep me focused on myself? I don't need to have my ego stroked. I don't need to strip my children of happiness just so I can assuage my own lack of it. Perhaps I can pull my head up and get back to work here. I gotta stop being afraid of my own shadow. I can't let discomfort run my life. No one gets stronger by wallowing in comfort. Life is full of risks. There are legitimate fears. But all risk can be mitigated. And most fears are not legitimate. Logic and confrontation tend to dispel fears of the illegitimate kind. Acknowledgement and ownership tend to reduce real risk. Why live life in a hole of fear? So here's a post for today. Hopefully I can put my own advice into action and this will be the last time I take several days off, at least for awhile.... —————--------------------—————  [YouTube](https://youtube.com/channel/UC0jBmxhIqteo40DjRVUWjRA) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/driptorchstudio) [Facebook](https://facebook.com/driptorchstudio) Be sure to add me to your fanbase on [Hive Auto](https://hive.vote) so you never miss an Upvote!
