emotional labor

Trying to find all the ways my life
is beyond my control, so I can let go
of those, and concentrate on

educating everyone

as to what the conditions are
when dealing with me, and everything

they should know they're responsible for,
which I never chose. It's exhausting,
though. First,

to find out the facts to explain,
second, explaining them over again

every time they forget what they have
to do. It's excruciating

I wish everyone knew
