Yep, I just stress ate a pint of ice cream for breakfast this morning.... It’s such a crazy concoction that human beings can appear fine, be achieving certain things, but still feel insecure on the inside.
Personally, even though we’re checking all the boxes that young pasta lovers should be checking, we’re still crippled by that invisible fear of not being enough.
This morning, it hit me hard.
Why haven’t I done this, how will we decide that, what will happen if X happens... Got out of bed fine, got dressed for the day, yada yada yada, then crawled to the freezer to eat away my sorrows. (I know i yada yada’d over the good parts #seinfeld)
The pint is finished, and dang it was delicious. But am I any closer to being less stressed?
The answer is yes.
Just by talking about it. So thank you for listening.
I’d like to give gratitude to 3 people who believed in us last year, even when we weren’t perfect: @danschawbel, @bowood88, and @phoebhops & @hopdaddy27.
I have no conclusion to this post, other than when you’re reaching for that freezer to eat away your stress, make sure you wrap the pint in paper towel to avoid cold hands.
