this this this !!! I enjoyed reading this because like you, I’ve been off of Instagram for a good 7months as well and while it’s genuinely refreshing (for my mental health) and overall well being, it also feels like I’m missing out sometimes? But then also, I’ve got the added benefit of time now and spending it being present which has been, so rewarding!! Although yes, it often, life feels like it’s not “happening” as much but I guess, that’s the beauty of it right? That- it maybe unglamourous and mundane but not- not beautiful. Which means that it’s, real. Not a filtered/reel like/romanticised version of something, because all days can’t be happening smh. And honestly, I’m so glad and happy that you keep showing up even while being somewhere in the middle. Because I think we’re so used to the idea of a beginning and an ending milestone that we often don’t talk about the mundane, the in-between, the journey of it, of doing life itself, which infact is what makes it so wholesome to do. :’)

This is one of my favorite pieces of yours. Extremely adult feeling, I learned from it!
