Since some big life changes that have left me feeling incredibly alone. I’ve had time to reflect on it and I wanted to share what has helped me so far..
1. loneliness, in its solitude, is an emotion, a way in which we feel. I’ve found it so difficult to stop thinking ‘I have no one and I am alone’. but try to replace it with ‘I am feeling lonely right now, how can I stop this?’ Everything is temporary, including this feeling.
2. Find autonomy with your time. When I became lonely I soon became depressed. A vicious cycle of feeling lonely but only refining yourself to your bed and room. You don’t need to do things with people to help this feeling. Just do the thing! find hobbies and activities that you enjoy first. It gives you more autonomy and confidence.
3. You probably don’t need that person that you think will ‘fix’ the problem. How you feel should not be dependent on anyone but yourself.
Any other tips? I still feel like shit. It’s just some realisations I’ve had.

are you picking flowers to give to people you love to ‘prove that you’re a gardener’, and then wondering why your garden is so empty?
here are some of my thoughts on what it means to cultivate self and environment in a way where you’re both still blooming :)
in a world in constant competition to “show up“, how often are you showing up for yourself? recently i’ve found myself at a social plateau where i have slowly melded into the things and people i love. and while this is lovely, it’s a great reminder that an evening of hammocking alone on the mountain or riding your bike somewhere new is not indicative of a state of ‘lack’, but rather a state of self fulfillment and ’being’. tell someone you love them today and then keep that feeling with you as you walk the river alone, or go to work alone, or drive around to your favorite song! <3

This is mine:D. I took it in Bali, the two people at the bottom make it just that bit more personal.

having the freedom to be entirely yourself around new people and feeling all flirty and hot is so fun. Someone just made me fudge for our first date and it’s so nice.
i just love meeting new people.. especially when there is sexual undertones. it makes it so much more exciting and interesting
