My goodness. It really has been a year or two. Honestly, maybe it's more like three. Whatever the case, time is moving quickly, and not in a fun speedy way but in a frantic upsetting way. Maybe it's because as we get older, time starts to feel as though it's moving faster. But, ya know, it could also just be our old friend "crippling depression" that makes a thick fog of the days, weeks, months and years. While some people are snapping back into place after the pandemic, I still can't help but feel the weight of the world on my shoulders as I go about my day-to-day life. Sometimes it feels like simply getting out of bed is an arduous chore. Even the former joy of cooking feels like a bummer, and the thought of meaningful social contact has the potential to fill my being with anxiety. While I am aware that my pain is of the privileged kind - I have a roof over my head and food to eat - it doesn't just go away. Sometimes we need to lean into it to find a way out. And sometimes we do that with memes.
