It’s hard to rest

I have been putting off recovery, because i love creative expression. I have been putting off planning because I can. I have been putting off Ki for health because focusing on my internal experience is challenging and frustrating. I have internalized the colonizer who says centering my experience is wrong. I have put off asking, “Do I need something, as well as the person I’m helping?” Some folx are comfortable centering themselves. The colonizing spirit of American individualism has encouraged white male people to center themselves and their needs as for the common good. BIPoC + allies, let’s center our experiences.
