You can't live life alone.

A community is essential.

One of the most important steps to beating depression enough to function, which I would argue can be a life-long exercise, is to hang out with people who remind you the glass is half full.

When you witness people who are hopeful in so many ways, you can borrow a little bit of hopefulness too.

Peak capitalism, and Instagram reels, have convinced us that we're better off protecting our peace, and must do what's best for us — in isolation.

This is not true.

We must be uncomfortable in small and self-consensual ways; and allow it to lead us into a richer community.

Surround yourself. 🌻
