Hi, it's Kai
Welcome to my little corner of the internet :)
Please enjoy your stay. if you're having a good time, let's do something together!
(and also feel free to
& tell me what's on your mind!)
Some things I've been exploring lately:
Do any of these resonate with you? Let's go for a walk and talk about it :)
Sometimes, Kai writes.
the need to be witnessed
written
sometimes all i need to escape the sunken place
is to be held and witnessed by a gentle other
who can drop into a moment together with me
and see me for everything that i am feeling
and make it all feel okay, together with me
and even as i strive to live a life of independence and self-love
i still find that in my darker moments, it is ultimately a loving connection
where i have the permission and safety to express my hurt aloud
that restores my sense of wholeness and embodied spaciousness
and wakes me up to the love that comes from within
part of me is scared to realize that i need this—
connection is rare, and stumbling into it at the right time is even rarer;
maybe it would be be better to just figure out how to do it all on my own.
but maybe to be human is to need loving connection
and the more mature thing to do, is to learn to ask for it.
honestly, maybe it's both.
it's probably both
growing up is learning to love yourself, and learning to ask for it when you cannot
and wisdom comes from the ability to discern
what you can do by yourself, and when you need to ask for help.
