When you feel responsible for everyone’s happiness
I felt hemmed in today by everyone’s emotions. I couldn’t see what the next good thing was for me to do. I’d had my coffee, but I still couldn’t think clearly - so I changed my shoes, grabbed my phone, and told my family I was going for a walk. Walking helps me clarify my thoughts and figure out my feelings. When you are walking, you can sift through the things you need to do and what you can let slide because it’s not yours to carry. When I feel hemmed in by emotions
