strange life update:

i don’t feel like the same person i was too long ago. i’ve become a stranger to my deep-seated love for bonding and quality time — a stranger to the me that simply shows up to give hugs, two step, shed a happy tear or two, and spread the love.

it’s not a mystery; it’s a pattern. every bond that i’ve lost, i allowed pieces of me to go w it, or turn dark and dull. most recently, i catch myself subconsciously opting out of being ‘free’ and ‘open’, again. i catch myself dressed in instinctive armor, again.

i jst know this time around, i’d rather have a whole self and nothing else when it’s said and done. i’ll worry abt the soft shit later, lol.

i’m not sad abt the shifts. may actually b more content in life than i’ve ever been, but i am hurting.

change can do that to ya! 🤓🤸🏾‍♂️
it’s good for ya, @ self by @jst.onyx

..i thank her for the little things that mean everything, like her having such a signature laugh that i can summon in my head at any moment, and get through any day.

life is both beautiful, and whooping my ass. may have found my balance in being a hermit and coming outside. really only thinking abt writing and creating these days, boo work. also, seeing how the very things you feel you didn’t receive in childhood find their way to you, later (it’s a choice to dwell in that past wound). oh, and then there’s trying to get comfortable in my calm while also embracing the gift in my emotional (and sometimes extreme) nature.. it’s cool, fr. everything is cool. by @jst.onyx

i can’t stress how beautiful life is. it feels so good to b here and i’m so thankful for every breath and every day; just all of the moments. i’m overfilled w a humbling amount of GRATITUDE.

been sitting w a health scare that made me halt everything. sitting w the idea of how fragile life can b, and how much responsibility it is to take care of myself as best as i can.. the way this physical body i exist in is jst rented. and the fact that i have taken life for granted, in one too many moments.

it’s hitting me hard. all of the ‘close calls’ and here i am, still learning the hard way.

but one thing i do know? reality checks are a blessing, no matter how uncomfortable, cause they’re literally a chance to get my shit together.

now, i find myself back in a space that i’ve been in before. somewhere that feels true to me. a path i wandered off some time ago, bc i deal w change by adding chaos to my life in an attempt to drown out hurt and discomfort til i’m over it (😂).

but we back.. i’ve found my calm. i’m chilling.
so much clarity. and peace, within.
GRATEFUL! by @jst.onyx
