I GUESS

How are you feeling about the year?

It's happening. It is
The best way
I can put this.
And it keeps happening.

Where do you see progress in yourself so far this year?

Hard to say.
But if I include
The little, less grand things
It becomes easier.
The shy progress I've been making
For years now.

The determination to
Not throw money at the problem,
But to fix it myself
(because i don't have the money).
Learn the computer,
Learn the car.

What are you doing well?

Websites.
The longer list is,
What I could improve
endlessly.
Can someone just tell me
What I am doing well?

What are five good things that have happened to you?

I new class, to improve mobility
My journaling meetup
The banishment of REDACTED
Inspiration for a 101
Volunteering and showing up for community

For the rest of the year, what do you hope would improve?

I want nothing more than
The world to make sense again,
To continue its progression
So I may exist
A little easier.

I've Given Up On Community (the buzzword)

Have I misused that word? When I think of community, I think of people chipping in, where they can, to keep the main idea of a space going. It's rideshare and mutual aid and dropping off food. It's resolving conflicts in a constructive manner. Multiple. Plural.
