What are you ignoring, and when is that okay?

Not everything needs to be exhumed, all at once. Everything in its time.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. - Ecclesiastes 3:11

I am not a Bible person, but there are time where it is so spot-on, it makes me think, “Hey, maybe people read this for a reason.”

I am in a perpetual rush, whether it is moving my kids along or asking my husband to do a chore to meeting my own expectations. That’s all well and good, but that’s not life. I can quickly clean a tub, but I cannot quickly grow myself into maturity after years of drinking to dissociate. I can whip off a column about parenting, but I cannot undo years of self-hatred with a mantra or in just one therapy session.
