Member-only story
I made time
for myself — to read, to write, to journal,
to be bored for more than a minute,
I even made time to upload a video on YouTube!
The joy of making my wants a priority
is something else.
Although I get lazy often
and find respite in Castle, the TV show,
I feel proud and happy
for checking off the tasks
that matters only to me.
I made time for myself,
the one good thing that happened today.
