Sometimes you’re high, and sometimes you’re low. Ultimately that IS life, and despite where you are in the landscape, everything keeps moving even if you choose to stand still.

i used to think that i could one day solve all the personal issues that were holding me back from my phantasmic idea of happiness and once i reached the top of that hill i would live forever; bathing, figuratively, in morning light from a kitchen window, a purring cat by my side and no dishes in the sink, and now i see my life stretching out, beyond that calm august day and into the sludgy, dark evening commute of an eventual february and back, and i see that my life is not a problem to be solved but a state of constant movement, two steps forward and one step back in perpetuity. my joy will be lost and found over again with the swing of that pendulum

i feel like each of us lives an alternate reality from one another where we can either align or experience different feelings at different times. good and bad are perspectives on life events (internal or external) that fluctuate across time. in this way we can’t generalize life as one thing. we move through the ‘motions.
will be pondering this…

ISN’T IT FUNNY HOW PLEASURE AND PAIN ARE SO CYCLICAL, AND GOOD AND BAD SEASONS ARE JUST BOUND TO BE?
You really can’t have one without the other, and when you are in the throes of despair, it tries to make you forget there is anything but, and then joy comes out of seemingly nowhere and you realize all that has been blossoming under your nose.

You don’t need to suffer to prove that you’re a good person. You don’t have to stay with the job that makes you question yourself and you don’t have to keep dating that person you’re not quite clicking with. If something feels off then it probably is. I’m not advocating for immediately abandoning your responsibilities and throwing caution to the wind; but in our hearts we know when something is working and when it isn’t.
That thing called intuition is your soul, and you can trust it.

There’s just something really energizing knowing that me, Megan Fox, and the Late Elizabeth II share something moderately specific.

I’m tired of jumping through hoops and reframing my mounting dread everyday as ‘an opportunity to make a change‘. I’m tired of thinking that only if I tried harder, or was better or did something different that I would have a better outcome. At what point do you stop trying to jam the same puzzle piece in the same spot and say,
“Hmm maybe this doesn’t fit!”
Am I quitting trying to be an ever optimizing and improving version of myself? Maybe. OR have I successfully gotten what I wanted out of this experience and can peacefully move on without remorse?
I think in 2025 I’m going to start choosing the latter.
