I really enjoyed this essay! I've always been a wild child...too loud, too crazy in serious times, always getting into good trouble when I was living at home. I was using comedy to deal with the side effects of severe childhood abuse. I either was born with or developed Bipolar disorder. So comedy when I was manic was so fun. Luckily I found the right meds and on my long journey to now, I'm stable and am still wild with my painting. I'm a professional watercolor artist. I found a relationship 26 years ago that celebrates my wild side and we've had some amazing experiences! I really love your posts!! Hugs š
Iām so happy this piece resonated with youl! I wasn't sure it would as is more personal. Iām glad everything worked out for you. I love watercolor so much! I think it is very soothing too. Big hug!
For me, survival mode kept me stuck in fear for so long. I had conformed to the restraints imposed on me externally and in the process, lost my inner freedom. It's only recently that I'm learning to reclaim it back and this piece inspired me
Wow, this hit hard. Itās crazy how subtly the world teaches us to trade freedom for approval. Hereās to finding our way back to that unfiltered version of ourselves.

It happens so slowly what we do not notice, until we are reminded of it.
