Hello, Darkness, my old friend…
Or: hello, blog, my old friend…
In my last blog post (which was published weeks ago), I lamented the fact that it was about a month since I posted. And here I am, yet again, posting another month later. I have been feeling very uninspired these past few months. I cannot tell if the busyness of the holiday season kept me from posting, or the grieving process, or our house hunt, or the prospect of another pregnancy, or the pandemic, or school life, or work…
Evidently, we’ve had a lot going on. But with that being said, I still genuinely feel like something is missing from my life. I had not exercised my creativity or put work into any of my hobbies lately. As someone who writes often about self-care, I know how important mental health is and having creative outlets is wonderful for anyone.
In a way, this post is the first step in holding myself accountable. I am not a huge fan of New Year’s Resolutions, but I do want to bring mindfulness into 2022, and take care of what I need to for myself.
I hope everyone had a great holiday season and new year, and I am looking forward to connecting more often!
XO, Antoinette
