My therapist invited me to use tarot cards (1/day) to reflect on life. Death seems fitting as I contemplate closing some chapters in life and starting some new ones, the smallest of which taking up too much space in my mind is getting away from Meta products.

This cute little Capybara was my emotional support for a challenging drive around Viejo San Juan in heavy traffic. They were a gift from my housemate, Shelli. 💜

🥹😭 I'm listening to Unmasking Autism by Devon Price and it's brutal. After getting emotionally overwhelmed and stopping multiple times, I asked a friend who read it and skipped to chapter 6 guessing (correctly) that action-focused things would be less brutal, but still I keep getting teary eyed.

I notice that I'm pretty good at gratitude practice when I'm struggling, but when things are good I tend to lapse. Then when I start to struggle, I often forget to start again 😅
