Trying to earn $$$ to pay my car rego and I feel sad that my body can only do 15 minute bursts of Manual labour at a time now-pendulum swinging back after all those years of pushing my body really hard to overachieve when it was already broken.

I wish I had known how to listen to my body back then instead of constantly seeking out experts to tell me what I already knew in my heart, when the experts refused to acknowledge that my body was already broken. I knew in my heart that it was and I wanted someone else to tell me that it wasn't so I could keep pushing myself. Now my poor broken body is slowly healing and needs my love and now, I'm ready to do that, so 15 minute bursts it is.  I can do this. - June Parkin
