This Timeline

“I did not choose to live in this timeline.” - TikTok Commentor

I felt this deeply.

I tend to struggle when life is throwing a lot at me.

This is made worse when the world and society are also throwing a lot at me.

So, I stopped watching the news.

I stopped compulsively checking CNN when my brain needed a break or distraction.

I’m choosing to return to the routines that ground me and help me stay positive.

I did not choose to live in this timeline, but I can choose:

✌🏻what media I consume and when,

✌🏻how I spend my time,

✌🏻my reactions and thoughts,

✌🏻healthier distractions,

and so much more.

Finding choice empowers me.

Remembering there’s more to choose than I sometimes believe helps create autonomy and perspective.

How are you choosing to make the best of your timeline today?
