There have been so many moments in the last few months where I have thought that I should just quit this PhD business. It’s hard. It’s hard to motivate yourself to read 100 books. It’s hard to write when all you want to do is work because you know bills are coming up and they gotta get paid somehow. It’s hard to balance education, a personal business, and being a mom.
So I’ve been heading outside, once a day, with my kid. Inspired by my west coast friend who makes it a priority to gather sunshine and ocean air in her life, and posts about it.
Her smiles tell me it’s gonna all be ok.
