☯️
No person is an island and pushing your thoughts and emotions far away is a surefire way to miss out on genuine shared human connection and emotion. On the other hand making everyone privy to the inner workings of your mind can make you feel as if you’ve lost your enigma. Choose wisely and guard your principles and ideas even though you’re bound to falter at some point.

acting mysterious is stupid
everyone is inherently mysterious. there is no way to ever know the innermost core of a person, even the loudest one who seems to hold nothing back
if you act mysterious it just cuts off possible connections
i understand feeling overexposed but as long as you keep a little of yourself that nobody will ever know
that's enough

Inspired by Billy Jones' use of oversharing in his list of what he’s into, I’m gonna put forward undersharing. I’m tired of showing my heart to people in conversation and expecting them to understand what I mean or who I really am. I’m ready to be seen and not heard, conversationally. Or maybe, not seen and not heard? Or to start speaking exclusively in riddles. Or to disappear into the ether and come back someday, in some undisclosed era, more frightening than before. After all I have indulged in this piece, I can firmly say that indulging is out, and mystery is in.

walking is such a healing activity when you don’t have to be anywhere, just one foot in front of the other until you feel good
