life update real quick

my active thoughts are more of allowing myself to be an entrepeneur, a law school student wannabe, an elementary batchmate who attends her classmates’ parties, a woman in her late twenties who smells good and looks put up, a well-articulated and empathetic mouth in conversations, someone who pays her dues on time, and someone whose body stands erect to the sun with every non-rainy morning available. not so much of a writer and reader in the strictest sense these days but i’m always gathering materials. always plucking details and stitching a sentence or two to make sense of a life. my medium may not always be the written word, but i am always coming up with words through conversation, movement, living. and that for me is enough. to actively lean into life moreeee when it so wants you toooo. to do the dishes, the walking, the thinking, the kissing, the tucking into bed early at night.
