Isn't it right there, James?

How can you have moved on and still be stuck? Looks like spinning wheels in a rut that we create ourselves. Digs in deeper the more you try.
Maybe stop trying so hard.
Maybe sit and let yourself settle a bit. Don't try to go back. Don't think about going forward. Just sit with yourself, in quietness. It is hard to do. I can only manage 5 minutes some days. But that quietness seeps in to the rest of my day. It soothes my mind that is so intent on wrestling with the past.

It's good to see you back. I wish things had gone better for you during your break from here.
