The Spaces we occupy : Reroute and re-root
Foolishly I had sworn that I was never going to move back into my parent's home especially after my father's passing but life had other plans for me.
Like many, I overlooked how lucky I was to have a place to fall back on when times get hard, home with amai (mother).
Moving back home felt like the ultimate betrayal to myself and as if my world got even smaller since I was moving from the city to a small town.
I have nothing but time and space to just be here. That has pointed my campus in the direction of nature, its serenity and the slowness of it all.
Sometimes I still struggle to shake off the feeling that life is passing me by and the change being a solitary confinement of sorts as I'm mostly in my own company with my thoughts.
I guess that's what has reignited the appeal of watching birds and of late dragonflies fly all so freely while I watch from the window.
It's already hard enough to feel a sense of belonging in spaces as an anxious introvert, however this has been an opportunity to reroute and re-root while rediscovering the spaces I occupy and spaces I could occupy.
