Change your standards. Simplify everything. Go slow.

Don't fall down! Don't try to do two things at once.

Try to remember what it is you were going after. If you can't remember, then it wasn't worth going after.

Used to be, I'd keep everything neat and tidy; straight edges for the beds, no weeds whatsoever! Perfect pruning. Now, I relish chaos.

I spend more time watching the garden than in controlling it, enjoying it as much as ever. The changes, I have changed. But just the being, out there, is enough for now.
