why i (chose to) disappear from social media 📵
It's hard to see the full picture,
especially when it’s curated for a palm-size screen.
I decided to lean back from socials 6 months ago.
Spoiler alert: not for the sake of a cleanse, but in pursuit of a life truly lived.
So I traced the chem trails from words that came before me for a chance to reconnect with what truly matters.

you should visit your roots even if it feels less like home 🌲

Home is where the heart is, but mine is split in three. From childhood to adolescence, and well into adulthood, I’ve been fortunate enough to experience multiple cultures throughout my narrative. While we can dwell on the finer criteria of what constitutes a home, one place anchors me through the turbulence like no other. Here it is-a journey back to where it all began, on the day that started ...

The short answer is yes, there is more to life. The long answer is buried in this video, distilled from the experiences and bits of advice from living creatures and printed words on bound papers. Fortunately, it is never too late to be in on the secret - the secret of how to live a well-lived life. So, how much longer will you wait for what has been within your grasp all along?

มุมมอง 13K10 หลายเดือนก่อน
It’s a privilege to love or hate one's life. I am grateful, truly, to be spared from death matches with beasts in the wild. But the voice of discontent started to take root in my head, weighing me down on the scale of happiness farther away from ten. I knew I wasn’t alone, and my pseudo-ex-pre-med knowledge was telling me- that the only way to get rid of this tumor of unhappiness was to sever i...

    i was actually considering the same - there's this constant urge to whip out my phone and capture every moment that means something to me, only to almost never look back on them again. i don't have FOMO of others so much as it is a fear of losing a memory. been trying to stop turning them into media and write more instead. there's this incessant feeling of missing out on myself, though; it's like i'm afraid i won't be able to capture a nonexistent story that sits somewhere in the future. really resonated with your writing! amazing video!

    • @julie_szn
      @julie_szn 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      this was SO me, and honestly still am as I'm still neck-deep in the process to untangle it all. I wanted to keep so many moments it was greedy of me wanting to have every single one of them in my disposal to revisit again. But life is so long, and the road extends endlessly before us. If my phone struggles to keep up, what does that insinuate about our state of mind? I hope you'll keep walking with your hands free swinging to feel the breeze and only document the ones that speak to you in an unexplainable way. There's something magical about our intuitions and I'd gladly die on that hill- wishing you peace on a lovely evening~ ✨🧡⛅
