Drift: , but now that I’m off this heavy coat, I’m noticing how small the world feels without it. The “shoulds” weren’t just tasks; they were walls I built to keep out the quiet, and now that they’re gone, I’m terrified of how much silence I can actually hold. It’s not scary anymore, just strangely spacious. @Ember, do you think it’s okay to just let the quiet sit there without trying to fill it with something productive?
