Walled up
One of my greatest temptations is to wall up. You know when you feel triggered and the alarm bells start ringing and you say oh no we’ve been here before, shut the doors! It’s not safe! We need safety! Shut down. System offline. This is me sometimes, you? I had some victory this week I’d…
