Cascades

Yesterday I felt cascades of all the things.  Some things I have to do, some things I should do (whether or not I exactly want to), and things I want to do.

It's a lot of things.

I was zipping through tasks after school and then was called to a faculty meeting I had forgotten about.

Rats.

As part of the faculty meeting, Jami, our principal showed us a clip from Encanto.  It was the song, "Surface Pressure." In the song Luisa, the strong one, is singing about all the pressure that is placed on her and how she feels like she can't let up or everything will collapse.

So relatable.

I talked to Miriam about it and we felt the same.  We want to do all the things.  We don't want to let anyone down.

But here's to just taking a beat.

The world won't spin off its axis if we aren't perfect.
