I once told a friend I was tired, properly tired. He didn’t try to cheer me up. He just said, “Then don’t fix everything tonight.” It sounded simple, almost careless, but it stayed with me. Evenings have a way of turning small worries into big ones if we let them. After a long day, the mind keeps replaying conversations, decisions, things left undone. Tonight, I’m trying to let a few things remain unfinished. The dishes can wait. The reply can wait. Tomorrow will come whether I prepare for it or not. There’s a quiet relief in allowing the day to end without closing every loop.
