A shade of blue for the back door (Tidal or Glass Sapphire?). A picture frame for the bathroom. A broken lock on the shed. Quesadilla cheese, shredded and melted into the cracks of the picnic table. Outdoor, takeout dinner plans. The timing of a five-mile hike. Unanswered texts to a friend. Distant beach plans. Too many rosé ciders. A poorly written memoir. A family member’s annoying Facebook posts. Fake holiday celebrations. Questions for a freelance project. A dirty car.
It’s crazy, all of the things that don’t really matter right now.
Can you comb through them to see what does?
Time with people we love. Time with ourselves. Little decisions to be made that might bring joy. Concepts that may or may not be connected to all of the things that don’t really matter.
