Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved?
Mmmh! It’s 9:37 pm right now where I am. I’ve sat with this prompt for the better part of today, in my head I’m thinking “Val this shouldn’t be hard, you’ve come across a lot of glimmers” but I just can’t think of anything solid honestly. What is wrong with my mind.
Okay I can’t think of any particular scenario. That’s not to mean that I’ve never felt love, I have. I encounter beautiful glimmers everyday. I think now, I have to get intentional about getting mental notes of them. ♥️
Where can you reduce clutter in your life?
Haaah! Definitely my phone.
I save a lot of unnecessary things, and then it gets genuinely hard for me to just delete them. Almost like I want those things to just stay in there but in real sense they don’t add any value, at times I even forget that most of them actually exist in there.
What are your favorite physical activities or exercises?
Pilates and any form of stretching.
What is one thing you would change about yourself?
Nothing honestly.
Everything that I was has led me to who I am now. And I love and genuinely accept the person I am now. Entirely.
What are your feelings about eating meat?
Haaah! Now this is such a hilarious prompt for real.
I love meat. My feelings about eating meat, pure joy..I look forward to eating meat. I love meat.
What are your two favorite things to wear?
Haaaah I love this.
Because above everything I love comfort. And I’ve learnt to appreciate my fashion statement. In there lays my sense of acceptance.
And so my two favorite things to wear are comfortable crop tops and stylish baggy pants. Any day. Anytime.
What technology would you be better off without, why?
I bet the TV.
Somehow in my world, the TV has started losing its relevance. I could go on and on about how it’s always “bad news”. The number of times I’ve had to yell, or talk back to the screen because someone said something shitty on the news is insane. The anxiety. The pressure. The bad news. I could do well without the TV any day.
Do you trust your instincts?
Yes
Only that I’ve learnt to sit with them and pay keen attention because at times it’s not usually instincts, but more like overthinking a situation and intrusive thoughts creeping in due to the overthinking.
But yes, I’ve learnt to trust my instincts occasionally.
What’s your favorite month of the year? Why?
I smiled so big at this.
October please, and more of October. I
Just loooove love October.
I think it’s mostly inherited from Anne of Green Gables (Anne with E). This girl made October sound and feel magical. I remember when she said “I am so glad I live in a world where Octobers exist” and I felt it…I feeeeelt it.
And since 2022, I just started getting excited over Octobers.
It’s one of those things that I can’t really explain, but there’s just something about Octobers.
Cheers🌸
Shadow to my light.
