I’m out in my grass, spending some time meditating and contemplating what I want in life, and how I can show up as my authentic self. Who am I? What do I represent? What do I want to create for myself? How do I want to connect with others? I feel like asking myself questions like this has been a big driver for allowing me to figure out how I want to express myself and doing it in ways that feel good to me. I think that expressing ourselves is really important. There’s a part of us that needs to be heard, stories we need to tell. There are things that eat us up inside if we don’t get them out. We need to sort, process, reflect, and accept different parts of ourselves and our stories. But we can’t do that if we never attempt to get it out. One thing I think holds a lot of people back from expressing what’s inside, is shame. And I just want to say that I hope you know you don’t have to carry that. I feel like shame is just the weight of judgement (from ourselves or others), and we just literally don’t have to take that. It feels so good to say fuck that shit, and just not give a fuck about what anyone else thinks of your process or expression. Go live your best life ♥️
