I really should do more of a lot of things!
More writing, more painting, more laughing, more walking in nature. More standing up for myself without apology. More sitting in silence and letting my mind wander instead of being dragged around by noise.
But of course, the “shoulds” never stop, do they? I should exercise more, eat better, clean more, meditate more, forgive more, blah blah blah. The list is endless, and it starts to feel like a nagging voice in the back of your head that’s never satisfied. And honestly? I’m sick of “should.”
What I really want to do more of is live. I want more truth, more joy, more real conversations, more belly laughs, more stubborn rebellion when the world tries to tell me what to do. The “shoulds” are for control, but the “wants” are for the soul. And my soul says: do more of what makes you feel alive, Mae, everything else can wait.
Mae 🧡
