I have moved a lot as an adult and I feel like you were able to touch on the feeling I've been left with after leaving a place -- a weird mix of grief, nostalgia, and untethered-ness. Sometimes it's hard to reflect on the places I lived (even when I don't necessarily think I belonged there) because of that feeling and the anxiety related to time. It always feels like time is running out, or passing us by, or leaving us at the mercy of its cycles. I'm looking forward to reading more of your writing! <3
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and comment!
It really does feel like we are at the mercy of the cycle, just like you mentioned. But also maybe since we don't have that tether, that maybe it may mean we are more open to new places, people, and learning?
Every season is different, it's sheds it's leaves, then it new leaves grows, then it becomes dense, then fruit grows, them fruits falls and cycle repeats
What a powerful introspection that I am sure your story is more nuanced than that. Thank you for coming out into the world as you were meant to. Keep being true and honest to your experience and what you seek will seek you. I trust this.
this was so well written thank you for sharing your story - i hope that you can find that belonging, even if it just means belonging to yourself🩷
Thank you for taking the time read and comment! I hope one day I am able to find that feeling.
