eels: my anxiety diary
Since 2025 fall, I found myself lingering on the eels
A creature, all threshold, all transition, all motion without explanation
A motif for the feelings that surface quietly
The flicker of longing, the shadow of uncertainty, the soft ache of wanting without holding
So I made a pact with myself
Each time there is a small shift under my skin
About desire, attachment, life, and future
I draw an eel
These drawings form an anxiety diary
A reminder that the tighter I hold, the faster things may slip away
