april thoughts

One of my greatest methods of inquiry is writing. I write to understand because without getting my thoughts onto paper, they swirl around my mind and give little room for sense. I journal, I plan, I blog. Since the age of 8, it’s been a way of soothing and comprehending an abyss of emotions, sometimes appearing like ocean waves.

I find true happiness comes from connection. And I wonder if sorrow comes from ideas and beliefs we’ve picked up. Or from disconnection.

When my grandma died in November, there was this week where I felt quite raw, very vulnerable. Unknown to myself even, and unsure of how to present myself. I have felt like that this week again, a little raw. Bare. I feel like I’m in between life stages at the moment, and while that’s exciting in many ways, it’s also a time of letting go of the past, and gaining more clarity into myself, my pwn way of being. Inquiry without judgement.
