How did we stop choosing for ourselves and just accept whatever comes our way?
Past Lives made me think about this.Was it fate, comfort, or just the right and wrong timing? At some point, we stop reaching and just let life happen!!! The movie lingers in that space between longing, acceptance, and what could have beenā¦

š§¬I love my life, so this isnāt in an escapism sort of way. I more so can feel what my life wouldāve been like in different scenarios. I can sense what it wouldāve been like if I went to vet school in Vermont, or if I had actually left my abusive ex that chilly night in October, or if I had gone to art school in DC, or moved to Portland instead of staying in Chicago and going to therapy. I like to think that all of those versions are happening in different timelines š§¬

šŖthe answer could be as simple as āthatās where iām happiestā then you kinda have to mentally walk yourself there, step by step.
i genuinely have these dreams i want to actually work towardsā¦ ive always had them but ive been so scared to try. the people i was surrounded by was a part of the problem. for example, i dream of DJing ā partner tells me āyou know when you get on the aux no one really wants to listen to just all the songs you likeā which is definitely *true* but also likeā¦ā¦.. shut the *fuck* up hahahahah
so i had to change my life, so i could change my life. i knew in order to become any type of decent musician, i had to first become who i really wasā¦ and tackle some deeeeeeeep rooted issues. this takes time. processing your feelings and self reflection are a huuuuuuge part of change but they can take lots of time. after a long time, i realized i couldnāt be that person in my old life. those feelings were so loud and so strongā¦ i had to listen them! i was only able to do this after i learned to trust my intuition. iāve found it easier now that thereās less ānoiseā in my life, i can feel around in the dark to find my way to my dreams.
i had to wait for a really long time though to make some of those decisions. i had to wait to work up the courage to say, this isnāt me. iām not happy here. now that i was able to have a different relationship with myself (where all my reparenting babies hiiiiiii) i feel like every single day my life changes a little bit for the better :) and like dreams is kinda silly, lovey, cutie pie of saying i just want hobbies where i can make stuff with my hands. lmao idk i need EMDR therapy.
have you read the book Waiting for Godot? Or 4,000 weeks time management for mere mortals? or Einstenās Dreams? i recommend ā„

āSame. Ive felt in a loop of sorts. Like how do you let it all go. Like really let it go. Knowing that you had the answers and were denied the right to choose

šāIf you want to know how poor somebody was growing up, ask them how many windows they had. Donāt ask what was in their fridge or in their closet. The number of windows says it all. It says everything. If they had none, or maybe one or two, thatās all you need to know.ā
