et me tell you one thing, if I don't do nuthn else, I'm gone rest! In my silk robe. And, not feel guilty about it. When you take care of other people + business constantly, you shouldn't be afraid to rest. You deserve to rest. I used to feel so guilty about resting. Especially being a mother, working hard like I do, I still would feel bad about it. My anxiety about it was unhealthy. And I don't work a typical schedule all the time. Any day of the week I could be working 9-5 or traveling for days at a time, or working at night into the early morning hours, making my own dreams come true. I used to feel guilty about it, overthinking everything. Black women are good for that. As soon as she lies down, those intrusive thoughts like "omg I'm being lazy, I'm not doing enough, stay "busy". Exhausted. Over worked. Trying to break generational curses. Taking care of my home. Emotionally + physically depleted. Rest is so necessary on this journey called life. Because *deep sigh.* The stereotypical, strong black, independent, traumatized, single, oldest daughter + mother, who year after year has to put herself last, and appeal to everyone else's better nature, is not healthy, no matter who tells you otherwise!
