Introduction
Welcome.
I’m glad you’re here.
It’s nice to meet you.
— Mateo
Moments
A few quiet reflections for real days.
Call your father
The calls don’t stop all at once.
They just get shorter.
A little more rushed.
Then harder to schedule.
Then it becomes, “I’ll call tomorrow.”
Not because anything happened.
Just because life fills up.
And you assume there will always be more time.
Already enough
Comparison doesn’t just steal joy.
It disconnects you from yourself.
You start chasing someone else’s milestones.
Someone else’s pace.
Someone else’s definition of enough.
And you forget that your life
only makes sense when it’s yours.
I’m fine
“I’m fine” is easier.
Easier than saying you’re tired.
Easier than saying you’re overwhelmed.
Easier than admitting you don’t know what you’re doing.
So you say it.
And you keep moving.
But the weight doesn’t disappear.
It just follows you home.
