“Smarter living.” There have been times in my life when focusing on things like cleaning the bathroom helped keep me sane. There have been times when everything seemed to hinge on whether or not I could get the smallest chore done. Times when nothing meant more than that moment in the day when I took my break from work, found a quiet place, and ate the sandwich and piece of fruit I’d packed that morning. A moment of peace. Anxiety and depression held at bay. I could do it, then. I could live another day.
