I am working on SEEING,
actively seeing makes everything brighter and more meaningful. I have allowed myself to go numb for the past year because of quarantine, i didn’t want to feel but now I embrace.
I SEE what the world has come to.. I adapt/change/grow into who I want to be.
Here I am, adapting, changing, and learning. Everyday the world is teaching us something.
Keep adapting, keep changing, keep learning. Everyday the world is teaching us something.
