I’m longing for…
...way too many things... But, with a long list of things that I would like to happen, things that I'd like to get (back) into my life... You'd think there would/will be a possibility of some of those things actually happening... 🤔 It may not be easy. It may not happen any time soon. But as long as there is this feeling of things starting to change, of negativity slowly transforming into something positive... 🍀 Yeah, that is a feeling that I really need to feel. I need some assurance that things can get better again. That this is not my new reality. I want to believe that this was all just temporary. Although I never imagined that it would take me this long. I thought my life, my routine, would be hectic, crazy, and messy for 3 or maybe 4 months. I truly believed that, by now, I'd be back to my old routine, well... The routine I had when Arwen was still with me. Unfortunately, I'm not really that close to getting there... 😔 […] -

I run my first marathon in five weeks
I was just reading a strikingly optimistic post from exactly six months ago, written as I became comfortable with half marathon distance. I wrote about how liberating it was to discover the power of pacing, the malleable quality of limits and the luxurious experience of sprinting to a finish line because you’ve got energy left in reserve. This all feels a bit naive in retrospect since I discovered that the physical and psychological load of running seems to change dramatically once you push past the threshold of fourteen to fifteen miles.
I thought back in March you could push yourself indefinitely if you pace it. Whereas now I know what it feels like when my legs will just not move any more, no matter what I tell them to do. I thought back in March that the temptation to stop was something you could overcome through force of will, whereas now I’ve experienced the point at which it feels like your nervous system forces you to stop because continuing no longer feels physically possible. I thought back in March that a long run was always going to be invigorating, whereas now I know what it feels like to be so profoundly exhausted that I can barely think for the rest of the day, let alone move around and do stuff.
I’m just about physically ready. I’m confident I’m psychologically ready. But that has meant a healthy dose of fear as I’ve come to understand that this first marathon is likely going to be one of the most difficult experiences of my life, at least in the final stages. I’m absolutely certain this is going to be something I will continue to do for as long as I’m physically capable of doing it. But I now understand there’s an element of darkness in it which I just hadn’t made contact with when I wrote that cheerful post six months ago.

SHORT FICTION BY HANS HARAYNTO: A HIKE WITH FRIENDS
excerpt https://www.communityedition.ca/short-fiction-by-hans-haraynto-a-hike-with-friends/ -
It’s getting harder…
...to keep going on... When I made the decision to give the male pup a home, after the second female didn't make it, I knew that it could be a bit more challenging. But, I had raised two galls, albeit with help, so I figured that I had enough experience to be able to raise a dude as well. I guess I didn't realise though, how hard it could be to do it on my own. Of course, I could never have known that the little dude would give be a herniated disc, a few weeks in. And while I was still recovering from that, they offered me an earlier date for my scheduled hand surgery. I weighed the pros and cons, and decided it would be better to get it over with now. But, I didn't know that it would take such a long time, before Koa would be able to sleep through the night... As it's almost September now, and he still wakes me up a few times every night. They're not all about getting a wee done, but still, he keeps waking me up, disturbing the sleep that I so desperately need. And, Koa is dealing with an ear infection in both his ears. Ever since he was a pup, he'd been whining occasionally. Maybe it was because of his ears. But he's still doing it now, as I shared in a previously shared post (Getting a bit desperate…), and I really struggle to deal with it. I worry why he keeps doing it. And, to be honest, at times, it just annoys me greatly... I know I am doing all I can to care for him, and still he keeps whining. So, after the annoyance, I feel some anxiety again, because what if he is doing it out of discomfort or pain? And I am not doing anything to help him with that...

Stop Judging your Routine By How tired it Makes You 🛑
When you stop using exhaustion as the goal, you can start paying attention to more meaningful signs of progress.
🧠 Fatigue is not the same thing as progress
⚡️ Performance is a better measurement
🏃 Constant exhaustion can hurt consistency
💪 You should leave some capacity for your next workout

Harbor stones, or: Gulls face wind
A haibun
I boarded without sea legs, a young fool, while the vessel pitched through waters that never seemed willing to settle. Over the years, I learned its motion well enough to stand, until one day I found myself on land, where salt had penetrated deep into the stone. In the harbor, other ships make for distant shores, but I hope never to board again.

Spirit of the Night
I am tired. Perhaps I would say I am more tired than I have ever felt in my life, ever. The butterfly of energy flutters evasively before me, and sometimes I catch her shimmering little self in a net, and she lends wings to my feet and fingers, and I fly here and there picking things up and adorning things with other things and turning the kettle on and making sure my five year old is bathed.. bathed so when she dots her baby brother with her kisses they don’t leave greasy marks over his soft little newborn face…
But then I remember that I was tired before this.
And told myself that was the most tired I have ever been in my life.
I said I would never do that again, no sir, and did not plan to. But plans sometimes take little pins and unravel themselves, climb out of their neatly placed little portraits, and clear their throats, demanding to be noticed.
But this kind of tiredness never really leaves your bones because it is never really quenched by the relief of sleep.
You do forget it though. The years go by and each month gets easier and soon you’re chasing their fat little selves and soon their little selves develop longer, bonier legs and they begin to chase you and one day you’re sitting in your kitchen watching Gilmore Girls and eating a sandwich and some crisps and hearing their little voices as they play in the next room, and you realise your back is no longer breaking, your scar is all healed, your abdomen is not numb anymore, and your body belongs to you.
Until Mr Plan wriggles free of his neatly drawn shackles and you’re back to square one again.
But yes, tired am I, tired are we. Devastatingly tired. A tired that drapes itself like a sleepy sloth on shoulders, just under the shoulder blade, a dull thumping pain, really. Some despair. Agony. Tears, because the world is a scary place when your brain does not get the respite it craves.
And you hope you make it through. And you know you will, because you did before.

Tiefe Erschöpfung- ein Interview mit der Philosophin Dr. Marina Christodoulou:
"Politische Bewegungen brauchen nachhaltige Formen des Engagements"
Viele Menschen erleben Krisen, Kriege oder soziale Ungerechtigkeit als einen Dauerzustand. Die Philosophin Dr. Marina Christodoulou beschreibt in ihrem Aufsatz „Zu einer Genealogie der ontologischen Erschöpfung“ einen Prozess, der von Irritation über Empörung bis hin zu einer tiefen Erschöpfung des Weltbezugs führen kann.
Am Anfang stehen Irritation und Empörung, nicht Erschöpfung. Doch wenn diese Empörung immer wieder ins Leere läuft, kann daraus eine tiefere Form der Erschöpfung entstehen.
Eine Erschöpfung unseres Bezugs zur Welt und ebenso zum eigenen Handeln. Christodoulou nennt das „ontologische Erschöpfung“. Warum ist das mehr ist als Burnout und weshalb ist gerade die Fähigkeit zur Empörung auch ein Ausgangspunkt für Hoffnung.
Für @RDL konnte ich mit der an der Constructor University in Bremen lehrenden Philosophin Marina Christodoulou über Irritation, Erschöpfung und Hoffnung sprechen.
Wir haben das Gespräch auf Englisch geführt. Das Transkript des Gesprächs findet sich auf der Webseite von RDL.

📷 & words by Naeema:
"💔 Transportation is no longer just a way to get from one place to another—it has become a daily struggle.
Distances that once took only minutes now require hours of walking under the scorching sun, along damaged roads, with endless exhaustion. Even reaching the most basic necessities has become a challenge, as if every step is another test of endurance."

Thresholds, or: Between escape and morning
A Sijo
night deepens, yet I stay awake bedtime feels replete with loss; exhaustion pulls me under late dreams grant relief from consequence; caught between escape and morning I resist the thresholds
d’Verse poetics: “My God, It’s Full of Stars”
At d’Verse, we are encouraged to write a poem in which the imagery and experience of night shape a central emotion, memory, event, or reflection.
Sijo?
A Korean verse form related to haiku and tanka and comprised of three lines of 14-16 syllables each, for a total of 44-46 syllables. Each line contains a pause near the middle, similar to a caesura, though the break need not be metrical. The first half of the line contains six to nine syllables; the second half should contain no fewer than five. Originally intended as songs, sijo can treat romantic, metaphysical, or spiritual themes. Whatever the subject, the first line introduces an idea or story, the second supplies a “turn,” and the third provides closure. Modern sijo are sometimes printed in six lines.

Delaying justice and accountability is an oppressor's tactic to avoid admitting they are refusing accountability and to proceed to deny justice.

Yesterday, I Needed Quiet
For the past few weeks, I’ve been sleeping more than I have in a long time. I’ll wake up only to fall back asleep again. Projects I’ve been excited about sit untouched. Chores around the house feel bigger than they should. I honestly don’t know why. Yesterday was no different. I almost didn’t go.https://perfectlyimperfectlife.blog/2026/07/05/yesterday-i-needed-quiet/
