I awaken from a deep sleep.
Where am I?
Slowly I realize where I am.
I am in my bed. I am in my bedroom. I am in my house.
I feel fear. I feel anxiety. I feel afraid.
I begin my morning. I make my oatmeal. I pour my juice.
Meal chant. Breathe. Eat oatmeal. Drink juice.
My house is so messy! How can I tackle so many chores?
I feel stresesd. I feel overwhelmed. I feel disatisfied.
Sitting. Not trying to let go. Going. Gone.
Fold laundry. Wash dishes. Watch Sesame Street (with kids).
Here. Now.
No I. No my.
Here. Now.
