Second, what an honest post. It's clear from the comments many of us can resonate. I've been thinking for a few years now—what even is "normal" anyway? Only a social construct. And one that aims to rob joy because of its impossible standards.
As a young ballet dancer, I used to always dance through the grocery aisles. I must've stopped once I reached my teens, and now my social anxiety has me sweating just walking *into* the store. I hope for the sense of freedom I once experienced to return again. Or at least some age-appropriate measure of it.
Thank you so much for reading! Why did I choose that photo? I try to not use Unsplash if I can find something more intimate, but this one I really liked, mostly because the colors and vibes fit the piece. And yeah, what is “normal” anyway? I find that it’s only an ever-shifting standard that we never seem to get right, because it isn’t meant to be attained. So I say screw that!
