A library chair can become a small piece of stability in an unsettled month.

When circumstances are unstable, a fixed point does more work than it appears to. Somewhere you can go without being asked anything, that expects nothing and costs nothing, gives a week something to be anchored to. It is not a solution to whatever is happening. It is a reliable hour in a period when very little is reliable, and that turns out to matter.

If things are unsettled for you, pick one place and one time and keep it, however ordinary. Repetition is what turns a chair into an anchor, and it works even while nothing else is being resolved.
