Thanks for sharing these thoughts, Jenny. I love this quote: "I learned that community is built by opening your heart to the people around you, rather than searching elsewhere for people you think might fit better." I feel like that applies to so much, not just community, but career, love, and lifestyle. The sentiment of starting and honoring where you are, instead of trying to escape, really resonates with me. Happy New Year!
Ah thanks Kayleigh! It's definitely something I want to explore more. I think the desire to escape rather than doing the sometimes painful work of staying in and enjoying the present is really what this whole essay was about. Glad it resonates and Happy New Year!! ✨
