One of my biggest struggles is communicating. Getting back enough that I'm frustrated to tears when I think I've said something clearly, just for it to have been misunderstood or taken in less than good faith.

Recently made the struggle to work passed it with someone.
I'll be honest, I was so frustrated initially that I drafted up an entire thing to ask to roll back to a previous interaction model. But the longer I say on it, and didn't go through with it, the less energy I had for it.

Not to say I had energy for the other way. It was exhausting and I'm burned out for now, but... At least I can say I made the effort, right? Since we eventually got to the even ground without a 3rd party joining to mediate.

I want to put effort into things and I hope this is a step forward to not only do that, but push past the wall of frustration that typically keeps me from doing much of anything these days.

Guess we'll find out.

Yolo,
Dusty 🐇
