sit with your thoughts once in a while. I know it sounds terrifying since we’re so used to the noise coming out of screens but just try it. It’s good for you.
The world can be such a quiet place sometimes (with the exception of ambient noises and stuff). Stop the music, put your headphones away, quiet the internal monologue, and pay attention. It’s so quiet out there.
Let the world be silent. <3
Been trying to do stints, timed spurts, of total silence throughout my work days. It’s a constant back and forth, music or silence. But I tend to feel calmer, better about myself somehow, after I manage to be silent awhile.
lately I’ve been doing chores/sitting in Ubers/hanging out alone without music or podcasts and it is nice to just stare into space and experience ur thoughts sometimes……
Can be scary! But nice too :)
it controls our lives so much I think we forget that it’s actually in a little box of glass and metal and that WE are the ones who use it, not the other way around.
i wanna turn mine into a photo album, reclaim the purpose of it as a place to just share photos of nice moments whenever I feel like it. Fuck social media anxiety these are just little icons on my phone so who caressssss
prioritize seeing friends and family over your to-do list. since I live in another country, I learned to do that anytime I have a chance.
do I have this really important thing I need to do for uni? yes. will I do it? after lunch with my grandma and coffee with my friends, thank you very much. they might die, and my work unfortunately cannot.
whatever it is, and for whatever reason you have, do it even if you’re scared. Do it ESPECIALLY if you’re scared. Being scared means that it’s important, and if it’s important then well, you should do it !!!
