Making-Meanings

Woke up with this thought on my mind: It’s not your thoughts growing longer, but the time around them shorter.

I’ve had a lot of anxiety surrounding an upcoming trip and couldn’t sleep most of the night because of it. I actually am not sure if that is a quote from somewhere, or just a reminder to self?

In thinking about it more, it does remind me of the saying, “The days are long, but the years are short.”

Still, there’s something bittersweet about the thought. Anxiety and overthinking can truly be beasts to overcome (for many reasons). It can take a lot to get past them and days have certainly slipped by when I just couldn’t that day.

Hopefully this “little” thought will become inspiration or grow into new meanings!
