i wake up at the crack of dawn, don my activewear and hit the pavement ! nothing quite like the silence that greets me (before i put on my marshall headphones) catching the worm before everyone else in my house, and starting my day bang on queue B-)

Personally, I find that going for a run or brisk walk, going to a farmer's market, showering in the dark belly of the early morn, and then hopping back into a warm bed before once again emerging into the world at, say, 9am is most strangely delightful

There's nothing like doing shit in the morning. Heading out to surf or walking your dog with a ripping hot cup of coffee. If you gotta get actual stuff done you're hella productive. If you need to go somewhere like the gym it's less busy. If you wanna write or paint or something it's quiet and peaceful. You get all the "me" time it's hard to get any other time.

a myth dating from the victorian period, these tiny, decorative glass bottles were wept into by those mourning their loved ones. once the tears collected eventually evaporated, this marked the end of their mourning period.
this myth has been debunked by scientists, with others saying that these bottles were in fact used to store perfumes, but i'm very obsessed with this romantic notion and will be sticking to it!

i see solitude as metamorphosis. you need that time in the cocoon to really check in with yourself and the joy of that comes from how you'll gain a deeper understanding of yourself.
sometimes i spend SO much time with myself that i get SO BORED that I HAVE to venture outside of myself. when i say venture, i mean challenging myself in how i self- express which will in turn, nourish my interactions with others when i choose to seek company.
proceeding to create art, but trying new methods. going down youtube rabbit holes of things i am interested in so i can discover new references. cooking a meal without following a recipe and surprising myself. making the space i am in super cosy (candles, snacks on deck, music, blankets) going on long walks and picking up conversations with strangers through shared observations of life around us. watching music festivals/boiler rooms and dancing around my room like a mad man.
once you feel comfortable in being by yourself, you'll be more aware of what you need from your company and when you seek it, you'll be a lot more intentional about it and cherish it even more.

*shines bright light in your face*
But WHY do you like what you like?!
Echoing a sentiment from Tyler, the Creator, where he tweeted for people to expand on what they liked about his songs and delve into the WHY (i.e the bridge, chords, riffs)
Truly believe itβs so so important to be able to articulate why things bring us enjoyment, pleasure and giddiness, because that just makes way for one to obsess/ research and learn more about said thing!
This is basically a gratitude post for PI, I just love blagging about what makes this Little Life of Mine more bearable !!!
