I used to think I needed to change myself to be more this or to be more that. Until I had a realisation that i had to just accept myself (I’m taking baby steps emulating this everyday ☃️). Tasks being the “stuff of life” really makes sense and in my mind that phrase helps me put less pressure on myself & I don’t have to really change anything about me. I feel the energy I get when I tell myself I can do hard things & the power of placing the hard things outside of myself.

I have been putting off writing to you thinking I need to craft the most perfect response : I received your post card & I was so touched.

thank you Marta, I love your insights. I'm wondering these days on : should I keep the long lists on "things I should do eventually" (just like your "touch up the wine dark”) or get rid of it ? After all, if I have to do it, I'll remember when it becomes both urgent and important or when I have the time and energy. We've been together for so long, the never ending list, I'm afraid to let it go. For now, I try to delete items I know aren't urgent nor important, one by one. That's a start.

I'll translate your text in French, I'll let you know when it's published.
