So many rabbit holes, so little time! Getting lost in them takes up other valuable time that I could be living...although when I am writing and researching, those rabbit holes do take me to some amazingly wonderful, fascinating places.

But the wasteful kind, the kind that comes from the chattering monkey brain, is when I obsess with worry about health (mine and those I love), or when I go over and over about something I wish I would have said or should have said at that meeting, or whenever someone makes a comment I disagree with -- or when I fall into the hole of past traumas.

I am working on letting go, every day this work, and stopping that "unrelenting noise." And my cats, and their cat energy, definitely helps me.

I love this - hits on so many levels - and had much to say about it...then I switched over to re-read it and lost my comments. I will get back at it later!
