Everything feels too big, said Rabbit.
Too scary. Too much. I know, said Bear.
It is big. And scary. And a lot.
I don’t even know where to look.
There’s so much noise, and I feel like the important things are getting buried under it, said Rabbit.
That’s on purpose, said Bear.
If you’re tired, afraid, and overwhelmed, you’re easier to control.
So, what do we do? asked Rabbit.
We rest when we need to, so we can think clearly. We pay attention to what they want us to ignore. We help where we can, in ways that matter. And we hold onto each other, replied Bear.
That doesn’t feel like enough, said Rabbit.
I understand, said Bear. But it is how we keep going.
