I love this passage: “I hope you fucking dance like no one is watching. I hope you strip all of the conditioning and “no”s off of your body and move. And then I hope you let other people see you. Because you are stunning.”
It’s funny how society forces us to abandon our childlike impulses and become serious adults, and when we do that, we often end up feeling misled, as if all those “adult” aspirations—career, wealth, social status—made us lose sight of what really matters: beauty, freedom, and joy.
Another great post!

Ah exactly! It feels like almost a "duh!" moment when I look for joy and find it in the things and impulses I used to love.
A friend sent this video of Taylor Lautner, an embodiment king... 🤣
