I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now

Watching the sky outside my office with big rectangular clouds obscuring the baby blue sky, I’m convinced that like a snake, I’ve recently shed some skin. Some part of me feels like the last two weeks have been torturous in ways I couldn’t get my mind around. And suddenly today, I feel like the answers are much clearer – like, oh yeah, I’m doing that again and right, I haven’t done some of this and I like this, and hell, spring weather also helps provide a little feeling of bloom instead of decay, but all in all I think we die and are reborn sometimes without realizing that that is what is tormenting us for days on end – I kept trying to name it – virus, menopause, economy – in fact, it was me, shedding.
