I get attached to things too. I have some clothes that are ~20 years old and have holes, but I can’t bring myself to get rid of them. Thanks for sharing this story. Thinking of you and your family during this time. You know where to find me. 🫶

Right?! It's so funny how we love what we love so much. Lessons in letting go are everywhere, but I also can't bring myself to buy many new things given the state of the world these days, too! And thank you so much. Sending so much love 🫶

I can appreciate that sense of life being fragmented. It feels quite disparate, at times.

Also, thanks for sharing the story of your camera. Proof that shiny doesn’t necessarily equal better ✨

It really doesn't! I get that pixel peepers want the newest and best but I genuinely think as humans we can form such deep relationships with things and that's what makes the difference to our creativity and identity, too. Like gosh, when I can use a camera like an extension of my mind then the creative magic I can make is so much more than if I'm just messing with a million settings all the time!

A bit like how we might struggle to get on board with canva because it feels counterintuitive to what we know and like, even though others claim it's the best thing ever 😂 different strokes for different folks, hey?! 💜
