There is too much.
Too much noise.
Too much input.
Too much urgency.
Too much toomuchness.
The temptation is to try harder.
To do more.
To get ahead of it.
I’ve tried that.
It doesn’t lead to clarity.
I wish it did.
It leads me to collapse.
More isn’t the answer.
Faster isn’t the answer.
Orientation is.
Not what do I need to do.
What direction am I facing?
What am I aligned with?
What am I calibrated to?
The wind is blowing.
The waves are coming.
The current is moving.
I don’t get to stop the weather.
I get to decide which way I face.
I can move in a direction
that’s closer to right.
