Fight v Flight
May 20, 2022
You know what I just realized- or at least finally clicked for me, is that I’ve been in flight my entire life, and you’ve spent yours in fight..
“I survived- and you can too”

My mind plays tricks on itself. Each new main character moment I have I can’t tell if it’s part of my real personality or something I conjured up, only to scrutinize for hours later on and dissect into nothingness.
I have literally thousands of thoughts daily,
constantly, all day long it can truly be exhausting. I didn’t find peace until I found Lorelei Gilmore. I could only dream of being that witty when talking to actual people, but I am fond of my own chatter no matter how obnoxious it can be. It has probably been like this my entire life, and I wish I could remember all the cool things I think of. I just know that from a young age I’ve had to get it.. out. On paper- on something. If i can get it out of my head then I create an opportunity to build and create upon a thought, instead of letting it wallow and drown. That happens too, and those moments can be quite dark. It’s a double edged sword- my brain.
My rough drafts got me through high school. I am exceedingly grateful for my conservative upbringing that granted me the access to regular book smarts that i used to coast through my education. Big fan of Run-on, incomplete sentences and poor grammar. I was always a first draft type of girl. I imagine myself in another universe where I actually studied. Perhaps I could have gotten better scholarships or more approval from my “inner voice” that was constantly reminding me that I was not living up to my potential in the slightest. Being constantly lied to by society is great until you actually leave it.
Find a culture you like, there’s literally millions. Just cause you were born into one doesn’t mean you have to like it. Unless you think it’s important to connect with your progenitors and shit… if that’s you then cool, I’m really happy for you I think you should really get into it.
I knew my sacral chakra was starting to heal when the color orange started showing up in my life and my house. I was welcoming color back into my life at a rapid pace and it fills my soul with joy.
