I struggle today.
I struggle today because I have no way to recharge.
I struggle today because I have an elderly dog who will undoubtedly cross the rainbow bridge soon.
I struggle today because I feel weak when I have to ask for help with the vent on my grill.
I struggle today because I can't protect my children from their fears about this virus.
I struggle today because I'm fully available to teach my own children and they don't want me to teach them.
I struggle today because my child couldn't share her hiding pet with her class.
I struggle today because I feel like I will never be enough.
I struggle today with my own uncertainty.
I struggle today because I have a hurt knee.
I struggle today because I want to be creative, but I have a creative block.
I struggle today, but I have hope that tomorrow I will find a way
to recharge,
to love my dog another day,
to clean the grill,
to comfort my children,
to teach my children,
to capture a video of the hidden pet,
to KNOW I am enough,
to stretch out my knee, ice it, and go for a walk,
and let my creativity return in whatever form it may.
