Discovering a New Life Out of Anxiety. In a world filled with constant pressures and uncertainties, anxiety has become an all too familiar companion for many. But what if we could discover a new life beyond its grip?
“Anxiety’s like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but it doesn’t get you very far.”— Jodi Picoult, “Sing You Home”
Discovering a New Life Out of Anxiety
Anxiety knows…
Literally read through a thread between a friend and I from this past month, and I realized it’s only been a month and I’ve felt so many emotions.
So many big shades of blue in sadness, firery orange to white in rage, purples and maroons of frustrations, shades of new pink making my chest warm, burnt out rusted orange that’s never looked this bright before, new depths of gray in loneliness, new geometrical reflections of yellow as happy moments are experienced and passed.
I don’t know when it happened, but I understand these feelings more clearly than ever before. These feelings have become a guide more than a labyrinth. 
More like a conversation than a beating.
I think, maybe this is what it’s like to know yourself. The bad parts and the good parts.
I feel a bit like ashes, but I can feel my phoenix being born again.
Punk spike jackets serve exactly the same purpose as coyote vests on a chihuahua. Sensitive little punk needs spikes between him and potential predators (strangers talking to him, he has social anxiety)
This is exactly what you look like in your battle jackets:
So I'm at the Battle of Helm's Deep but for whatever reason I was tasked with making a chocolate raspberry cheesecake.
The catch? It had to be vegan.
Why? They wanted to launch it into the Uruk-hai army.
They figured Uruk-hai love chocolate raspberry cheesecake so they'd start eating it, but then get really really depressed that it was vegan, so they'd just turn around and leave.
Do you know how hard it is to make cheesecake in Middle Earth? Especially during a battle when they don't really have supplies? And then they hit you with vegan??
Like, they've breached the walls and I'm trying to figure out what to do and things are dire. And I'm looking at Theoden and Aragorn as they're explaining this vegan cheesecake plan and going "you're shitting me" and Aragorn very seriously responds "we shit you not".
The thing is? It worked. How did they know Uruk-hai love chocolate raspberry cheesecake?
Also I'm pretty sure I made the crust out of lembas.
This is all because I wanted to draw Arven with a lil braid and it got out of control with me letting my kids be friends.
Some formal event and Arven is like "I'll bring this along because Penny will probably have one" and then they don't have one so he has to give them his. And he's like "ok so i have heard of a security blanket but not a security boa......".
