It is with a full heart I write this. I am back. Back to the place and time where I was happiest I think, where I was the most inspired. It was a transition going from living with my bustling family to living on my own, going from a 50+ hour work week to studying in coffee shops, selling photography, and making friendships over punk rock bingo on Tuesday nights. At first it was both incredibly exciting and simultaneously scared the crap out of me. I felt up in the air, a little off center, not sure what was going on or where I was going. Then it all fell into place. Living on my own filled me with joy and authenticity. My life was more my own than I had ever expected. I felt saturated, inspired. I laughed and cried spontaneously and daily, finally ok to just feel how I felt. I felt deeply connected to my community and also totally ok to spend much of each day on my own. I learned never to be bored and always to be curious, always seeking a little mystery in my days. It was a few perfect months spent living the life I had been dreaming of for so long.
