Clarity

by - 1:38 PM

At the best of times, my brain is pretty chaotic. You know that scene in the first Harry Potter movie where they have to go through that room with all the winged keys? It's kind of like that. From the moment I wake up to the moment I fall asleep, my mind moves a million miles a minute.

(Brief pause to appreciate that brilliant yet unintentional bit of alliteration.)
Thoughts and dates and ideas whiz around in there like crazed flying keys. If I didn't know better, I'd say that I had ADHD.

Lately I've been going through a hard season in life. The ideas are cloudy. My memory is often hazy. The thoughts don't seem to make any sense. Every day has been stumbling around in this hypothetical fog. You can still tell when there is light, the way that I can still tell there are happy things around me, but it's way harder to recognize. 

This week is CRAY. Papers to write, songs to memorize, school to attend, 2 part-time jobs to manage, concerts to go to, appoinments to keep, meetings to participate in, Roadshow to organize, choir to be at... Like, it's one of those weeks that I'm probably going to need a week just to recover from. My life is, I guess, a smidge busy. That's why it was such a surprise to me this morning when I woke up and realized that for the first time in awhile, I didn't feel overwhelmed. Despite my insane schedule, and despite the things I'm dealing with, today my mind is wonderfully clear. It feels SO good. I hope this feeling stays for awhile.


 Here. Have a compliment!
