this felt like someone pointing at the map and going yep, you are here, and that’s not wrong…

the middle is so awkward and wobbly and nobody cheers for it. old me doesn’t fit anymore and new me is still loading. rude but true. also the part about not rushing through it hit me — like if i sprint, it still shapes me, just without asking.

this made the in-between feel allowed. like i can sit here and breathe and stop apologizing for not being done yet. very calm, very steady, very oh… that’s where I am~
