Audacity

This morning on my break.

I laid down in my classroom.

Turned off the lights.

Closed the door.

I felt the guilt creep in.

You should be doing more.

But I shut my eyes anyway.

I chose rest.

Not because I earned it,

but because I needed it.

And every time I pause.

Say no.

Or listen to my limits.

I hope to set a small example in a big, busy world.

Where self-respect, not exhaustion, becomes the norm.

5" x 7", watercolor

This work comes in a black floater frame.
