My Advent calendar prompt is to write down five positive statements that begin with “I am” and I wanted to add mine here and also recommend this as a practice if you are in need of a small pick-me-up.
I am still alive.
I am fed and caffeinated and clothed and in no real danger of losing my home or a place to sleep.
I am a fucking delight, and someday I’m going to meet someone whom I find equally delightful who is smart enough to realize that. I hope.
I am still not completely without hope, so 2020 can suck it.
I am looking forward to things. I have things to look forward to.
Feel free to share yours in the comments if you want.
