Stuck between now and where I want to be
I know that living in someone else's house, you have to follow their rules. For me, it's a little different. I feel like I am doing things in certain ways to keep the peace, to try to stop or control the fighting. That is what happens when you live in someone else's house, after all. You can't do things in the way that you want, or to live your life the way that you want to. Because I live with my family, I always have to listen to other people's opinion about what I do. It's a lot for me to take. It is part of what made me lose myself, as I have always been someone that did what I wanted regardless of other people's opinion. Having to listen to so many other people have really gotten to my mental health in so many ways. After listening to them for so long, it has made me doubt myself. Wondering what they will say if I do or try certain things. Also wondering what they will say if I fail. The fear of being made fun of if I fail is enough to make me not want to try. I know that it is holding me back of even trying to live the life that I want. Though, I'm not sure how to shake this feeling.

Warm Hands, Gentle Heart: Memories of My Mother
My earliest recollections aren't fabulous undertakings or clamoring cityscapes. They're washed in the warm shine of the kitchen light, an orchestra of ringing spoons and sizzling onions. The air held the ameliorating fragrance of stewing stew, the smell reporting my mom's presence before I even saw her. Her hands, however roughened by long periods of work, were my place of refuge. They manipulated batter that rose like a commitment, mixed foaming pots, and in particular, held mine with a delicate strength.
