A long time ago I came across a now somewhat popular meme that describes seeing a person at a coffee shop with no smartphone, tablet, or laptop, just sitting there drinking coffee like a psychopath… 😆 it stuck with me.

Somewhere along the way, we decided every gap needs to be filled.

Practicing boredom really isn’t that boring

Thanks for the reminder

I complain and accuse you of trying to control me when you ask too many questions (which is usually one or two).

And, I sometimes cringe when you try to hug me.

I know it hurts you. I know you’re confused. I know you miss me. I push you away when, really, all I want is for you to stay close to me.

I’m not sure I can, but I want to try to explain why…
