I feel like a lot of people have put immense pressure on themselves to accomplish/achieve something big during this quarantine so they don’t “waste” time.

So many posts about how guilty they’ll feel if they don’t use this time to finally catch up on back-work, clean their house, organize, work, work, work.

Y'all need to remember that we’re experiencing a global crisis, and to some degree, I think arguably a global trauma.

Right now, everything is uncertain, the future is vague, and the world is scary. We are all already under so much unprecedented pressure. Pressure to provide for ourselves and others, to stay safe, to keep others safe, etc. etc.

The LAST thing we need is to set ultimatums for our schedules and punish ourselves for not writing a damn book or reorganzing the garage all with the weight of Global Pandemic Crisis weighing on our minds and lives.

The truth is, no one needs to get a damn thing done during all of this except what concerns public health and services.

You don’t need to clean the attic. You don’t need to reply to all of your emails.

If doing those things makes you feel better, great! Have fun! But if they’ve become a tool for guilting yourself into being miserably “productive” in these trying times,

Give yourself a break.

Maturity is realising that other people are not mind readers, even those who love you. It’s on you to reach out, talk about how you feel, and to explain yourself. ​Everybody is busy living their own lives and is caught up in their own issues & problems, amidst all that you can’t expect them to magically be in tune with your every need and emotion. Communicate.

laughing together with someone you like having around is probably the most purest form of happiness
