I want to tell you about one of the most quietly liberating things I have ever done...
Stopping explaining myself.

Not rudely. Not without care for the people around me. Just releasing the compulsive need to justify every choice, every boundary, every decision that did not fit what someone else expected of me 🥺

Because I used to over explain everything.

Every no came with a paragraph of reasons why. Every boundary came with an apology attached. Every choice that deviated from what was expected came with a detailed explanation designed to make it acceptable to whoever was watching.

And it was exhausting.
But more than exhausting it was a signal.

It was a signal that I did not fully trust my own judgment. That I needed the people around me to agree with my decisions before I could feel okay about making them. That my choices were not quite legitimate until they had been approved by someone outside of myself.

Stopping explaining myself did not happen overnight.

It was a gradual and sometimes uncomfortable practice of sitting in the discomfort of someone not understanding a choice I had made and resisting the urge to immediately fill that discomfort with justification.

And what I found on the other side of it was something I did not expect.
Peace 🥺

The quiet, solid, unshakeable peace of knowing that my choices belong to me. That I do not owe everyone an explanation. That the right people will understand and the ones who do not were not going to be satisfied by any explanation I gave anyway.

You do not owe anyone a paragraph for every decision you make.

No is a complete sentence.

And your life is yours to live without a running commentary 🤍

some days you just wish you could bottle up and keep forever 🥹🌄💫

and this was one of those days!!!

i mean, how is it possible that we live on a planet THIS beautiful?!!!!😭😭😭

everywhere you look there’s something new to fall in love with

and clearly i was handling all this beauty very maturely 😎😎😎

running around like a little kid discovering the world for the first time. MY INNER CHILD IS HEALING

but genuinely, how are you supposed to act normal when everything looks like this? lol

and then we got to share it with some of the locals 🦬

LETS EXPLORE SOME MORE!!!!

lil water break

me and my bestie on another romantic holiday

being reminded once again how incredibly small we are in this big beautiful world😭🥹🌍

but you know what makes experiencing it all even more special? having someone who’s just as curious and excited about everything as you are🥹💕

we spent the day trying to spot every animal we possibly could

obsessed with my new sweater

if you look really closely you can see the bear!!!

taking our wildlife detective responsibilities extremely seriously lolol

and somewhere between all the laughter, the adventures and the little moments in between..

i found myself thinking about how lucky we are to get to experience this life 🥹😭

and how much more beautiful it becomes when you get to share it with the people you love 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎

It’s just my kinda fun in the sun ☺️
