She said it again this morning; she tells me every day.
“I don’t know why you bother. Nothing will come of it.”
And every day I push back. Reach for one more minute, one more word. Someday I will shut her up.

I relate to this as well. I keep pushing back against the voice of uncertainty. Keep on pushing, Christine. I love that one day you will shut her up.

I have that voice in my head too, which is why I don’t write as much as used to. This is on point. Nice job!
