Oh no you don't ... before you go, can I ask just one thing?
a letter from this writer to her easily distracted brain
Dear Brain that I adore, owe my life to, and treasure (even when you try to swindle me),
I’m writing to ask if we can have a short separation. I’m willing to take a few minutes, but just want to go on the record here to say, a few hours would be generously received. In return for a few hours of linear thinking, and being given space and time to absorb material I discover about wolves and giants and the cosmos when I’m down my favourite rabbit holes with those topics … I promise to honour you with rest, care and even more appreciation.
Gratefully,
P
