I stood in the kitchen and forgot what I came in for

Dear Delyara, This happened three times tonight. Not because I’m forgetful in some dramatic sense. I think I’m just full. My mind feels like too many things are running at once lately, and it’s starting to show up in these tiny slips. Walking into a room and forgetting why. Reading a message and realizing nothing stayed. Starting one task while still half-thinking about the last five. It’s unsettling because it makes me feel less gathered than I want to be. I don’t think I need to “get organized.” I think I need rest that actually reaches the part of me that’s crowded.
