"That’s why reframing my current situation as “I can have my needs met no matter where I am in the world” is incredibly useful to me. It gives me comfort that I’ll be okay even if I stay at home. I think I do still want to move out, but I don’t feel the same pressure and urgency anymore."
Enjoyed this - I've also been thinking about how so many of our actions are driven by trying to meet unarticulated needs - bringing them to the surface is very helpful to know how to meet them wherever you are in terms of location or circumstance
Thanks, Zan!! Good thought, I've been getting value as well in expressing my needs and unpacking thoughts. Sometimes, all it takes is letting them get out of your head!
this is wonderful Linart. realizing the need for change and changing through reframing your mindset. having the needs met no matter where you are in the world is powerful and I would say the solutions to your needs are not out there somewhere in the opposite of the world, but they are already inside you. everything can be reframed, reimagined, and re-invented.
Gah you took the words out of my brain - thanks for writing this.
Hard relate to trying to make friends without an organic community in a city - agreed online communities and meeting virtually new people has been a good way to manage that gap
