Before you know it, you're accidentally doing acts of service for future you 🙈

Before I had a surgery, I packed myself a couple blankets in the car in case it was chilly when I got out. I was so hopeful future me would appreciate it. I actually put a bit of thought into it, and wanted to be considerate of a future me who wasn't 100%.

Future Me had a bad reaction to anesthesia and couldn't heat up even with meds, food, and extra blankets. I was desperately grateful for cozy home blankets for the ride home. I now would kill for past me, what an absolute champion.

I have found it easier in the months past to stop myself when I start criticizing my little mistakes and ask if it's fair. It usually is not. Especially to be so critical of someone who saved me from turning into an icicle. 🥳
