I open Instagram and after five minutes I’m overwhelmed by a tidal wave of thoughts:

I should be seeing the sunrise.

I should be seeing the sunset.

I should be writing my Substack more often.

I should be watching less TV.

I should be working out.

I should be cleaning.

I should be with family.

I should be with friends.

I should be with a partner.

I should be alone.
