when sad, one is creative

there’s something strange about the headAche that follows a good cry. it lingers. an aching reminder that the tEars were real. that the sadness was deep. the thrObbing in my temPles feels like a weight. but also a strange clarity. when everything seems blurred and raw. the mind is sharp in a way it’s neVer been before. it’s as though the heart and tHe mind have found a rhythm together. a rhythm that only comes with the quiet aftermath of pain. it’s during this vulnerability - when tHe world feels heavy and silent that creativity flows best. when sadness wears away the surface - the soul has space to create without barriers. there’s honesty in it, a kind of bruTal truth that can only emerge from the deepest emotions. the ache. thouGh painful. clears the path for something new to emErge. it’s almost as if the sorrow is the soil for growth, and from it, idEas sprout and twist. but i kNow that this isn’t forever. the headache will fade, and with it, the weight of tears. what once felt overWhelming will soften. moments are just the prelude to something better. the clouds will break. there will be space for the light to return.

My life is teeming with change right now.. remembering to give myself grace as small parts of me grieve the past and who i once was

Letting go is hard but imperative. I’m a little sad but must forge ahead bc my past doesn’t want me anymore so why should I cling to it?

embrace the tower

i did the same thing right out of college and basically accepted it was going to be a very difficult period of mourning/grief, living at my parent’s house, and many question marks. accepting it will be painful is helpful- it reminds you it is temporary. freedom is actually thrilling when you realize the whole world is open to you. the opportunity to rediscover yourself happens many times in life often after huge change or loss… i have never learned more about myself or grown more than in those periods. grief / transition / uncertainty …. there is much alchemy in these moments. find simple pleasures like .. your favorite playlist of the moment, feeding yourself a good snack, reading articles or books, comfort movies. and then maybe onto bigger, more exciting things like meeting new people, trying out new hobbies, exploring different scenes and industries. trial and error baby! you will look back on this period someday and laugh because life is so long but it all seems so hard at the time. this is just a moment:) godspeed

eye contact

something/anything happens in public, and you glance over to the closest/whoever person next to you, and it's a "did you see that" kind of eye contact that incites an emotional response, sometimes leading to a conversation, sometimes just a smile, the kind of connection that can spontaneously turn the mood of a day around and i find that so so fun and beautiful

journal about your idea of a perfect day

gotta visualize and build what we desire, and writing for me is a good test of actually knowing and grounding myself through the whims of distraction i find myself engaging with
