Waves crash into the cliffs You can remain at a safe distance Or let it take you in and out
I think I need to uninstall Instagram
So I follow a bunch of sea/ocean inspired pages on the app. Obviously. But now whenever I open up the app all I see are these horrific graphic gory images of the dolphins being killed on those Faroe Islands. It’s so fucking awful. I’m so overwhelmed. Maybe it’s being a mental health professional so I [...]
Nothing Feels Inspired or Energizing
I feel too exhausted to really engage in my creative endeavors even on the weekends. I’m not sure what to do about that. There doesn’t seem to be many options for juggling things at this point though I have considered making drastic changes so I can pursue what I want to while earning a decent [...]
