Experienced an existential crisis from the state of the world BUT I’m on the other side of it now! Here’s a little song for moving your feet!

I'm a big Ethel Cain fan and I heard this remix first on Tiktok. Last week, I blasted this song in my living room and danced with my boyfriend, Jack. Fully chaotic jumping, spinning, sweaty dancing. Dancing is incredibly cathartic and such a good way to move stuck energy through your body-- I don't go to clubs hardly ever or take dance classes, so I'm trying to make more of an effort to "dance on my own" (hehe, song title). It's good for the soul.

I’m not a parent and do not plan to be. Kids can wear me out fast with their high energy and noise level; it leaves me very over-stimulated. But it’s pretty extreme when people say they ”hate kids” and I often feel it’s a reflection of their childhood and beliefs around how kids “should be.” That they were expected to be quiet, obedient, and out of the way by their parents when they were little.
It’s fucking hard to be a kid. You’re dealing with a rapidly-changing body and underdeveloped brain, managed by flawed adults who are enforcing boundaries that you do not understand. It’s confusing and hard to manage your feelings and honestly just a lot.
People are impatient with kids when they‘re brand new to the world and figuring it all out, and this is a time kids need a friend the most. Children can also be teachers to adults with how they are less habituated to the world. They teach us how to be free and open-hearted and silly and imaginative.
A good practice is to be kinder and gentler with kids. If that feels difficult, start with gentleness toward your inner child. Maybe that’s the child in your life that needs your attention and kindness most.

I meant to post this yesterday. Absolutely beautiful morning for walk.
This morning is also beautiful but in a spring rain kind of way.
