- ̗̀ wake up ̖́-

for a lot of us, 2018 was a time of grappling with change. realising that something that used to bring us joy doesn’t anymore, or something that was once comforting is now constricting. a year when self-reflection meant re-assessment rather than reassurance. the end of what was once a beginning.

so for 2019, I hope the confusion and apprehension that comes with unprecedented change eases. I hope you give yourself what you need rather than what you want, because that’s how you’ll grow with your surroundings. water instead of coffee, sleep instead of the internet, productivity instead of procrastination. establish who you are and who you want to be, where you are and where you want to be, why you are and why you want to be. if those answers aren’t as clear as you want them to be, that’s okay. you’re more than okay.

autumn: the changing colours remind you of how your body, mind and life is constantly developing, going through changes to get a step closer to the finish line. it is a representation of the preservation of life, giving you a chance to reconnect with yourself. the days slowly getting colder and the falling leaves not only reminds you of your beautiful surroundings, but also the beauty of letting go.

winter: the biting cold weather represents clarity and purity. the still surroundings gives you a chance to quiet your mind, contemplate and focus on your inner self, it is welcoming you to reflect on yourself. you are given an opportunity to rely on yourself to feel the warmth, instead of heavily relying on your closest to do so. it is a time for independence.
