You don't have to figure out the rest of your life today. You just have to get through today. That's the whole assignment right now — not forever, not five years from now, just the next few hours. Maybe you're stopping cold, maybe you're tapering with a doctor's help, maybe you're somewhere in between, still deciding. Wherever you're starting from, it counts. The urge to make huge promises about who you'll be from now on is understandable, but it can also be a setup — big vows are heavy to carry on a day when you're already carrying a lot. Let today be smaller than that. Let it just be today.
