I love not being in the know. I feel like an alien when I’m with friends and they talk about Instagram and tik tok trends. It’s such a relief and a pleasure to be out of the loop

I recently deleted all social media apps(except for Perfectly Imperfect, duh) and it's like night-and-day.
Why do I need to know about everything happening in the world? Why do I need to allow the algorithm to rile me up about things that I have zero control over?
Last night I wrapped presents and listened to 1930s jazz and read a book instead.

Honestly deleting social media (especially instagram) has widen my capacity for new Real world things in so many ways. Being more creative, having more original ideas, honestly just more time To think!!! I think the first month was an adjustment because it was like a dopamine cleanse, lots of overthinking and feelings of intense boredom
A lot of the things projected onto me I realized were not even insecurities of my own but harbored in my brain because of tiktok/instagram
I did worry about having FOMO and not seeing what my friends were up to but I can also just text them and ask ??? I feel like instagram especially is a very PASSIVE and superficial way of connecting with people. I definitely feel like my social circle decreased exponentially without it but for the better 🧍♀️

i've deleted instagram before lockdown and the only social media i've had and still have (but take constant breaks from) is twitter, though it doesn't annoy me as much since i don't follow any person i know in real life. for some reason i felt embarassed saying i don't have instagram when new people i met asked me for it but honestly it was the best decision i've ever taken. not seeing toxic people from my past on a daily basis helped me move on.

This past year I have become obsessed with all that our hands do. hands help, build, create, love, share. There is so much beauty in our day to day lives you just have to look for it.
This is one of my favorite hand pictures I took this year. my coworker is opening a pomegranate to share with our class. I love how her hands are making a heart while she is separating the seeds.
