No. 6
Just one rice ball. Life keeps going.
Before you wrestle with anything hard today, eat something. That alone counts as winning.
When you're worried or stuck in your head, food is the first thing to slip. You grab whatever, or skip it altogether.
But humans are oddly simple machines. An empty stomach tilts your thoughts toward the worst case. A meal, even a small one, gets your brain working again, and your problems shrink a little. Today, start with something simple. A rice ball. A piece of bread. Whatever counts as a real bite of food.
A hot, lightly salted rice ball, no fancy filling needed. Feel the warmth move from your hand to your stomach. Eat slowly. That alone is proof you're taking care of yourself today.
