It’s been a little while actually since i wrote anything on here, and it’s not because of a lack of ideas or writings i’ve put down, but rather just a lack of time and energy.

I find myself fortunate enough to have a job i really care about and i think does some good out there. But it’s a job that can take a heavy mental toll, and unfortunately work has just been busy. Really busy.

We’re at such an odd space where so much change and growth is happening, but it still feels like so much more is on our plate and this balancing act of trying to do all the things that matter and still have something of a non-work life has just been completely out of balance.

This is not to say it’s all been bad, not at all, but rather has given me some valuable time to really feel how my mental strength holds up during really stressful times. Thankfully it’s largely held up, and i am grateful for the many previous challenging times that’s allowed me to shore up my mental well-being and strength.

I’ve put down a number of ideas and thoughts in the last few months that i’m finally going to start putting up here. It feels so good to write that down after such a long period of time of not feeling like i was ready or willing to share anything.
