🌷 gentle affirmations

🌸 It’s okay to rest and just be little. 🧸 I am worthy of kindness and care. 🍯 I am soft, sweet, and special. 🎀 I am allowed to feel safe and happy. 🌈 My feelings are important, no matter how small I feel. 🍓 It’s okay to need comfort. I deserve to be comforted. ✨ I bring light and joy, just by being me.

Remember that it's always okay to share your feelings with your friends, family, or counselors/therapists. It's also okay to try to wait it out, take things slowly. one step at a time!

Today's quest is:

Find 5 or more good things about your daily behavior.

What do I do without a smartphone?

When I got a dumbphone/flipphone, I immediately started living a super cool super fulfilling life! I travelled a ton, ran a marathon, immediately got good at art, read 4 books in a day, and now have 22 close friends! Thats exactly how it works, i'm not lying AT ALL, trust me ;)

...ahhh okay you got me, thats not actually what happened.

Yes my life did change, and all for the better! I do have a cooler and more fulfilling life now, but not like that, I just started living a regular life? This little post is about what that looks like these days (for me)

First, a little bit of math. My screen time with a smartphone was 5.5 hours on a good day and almost 9 on a bad: about an average of 7.25 hours a day. Ive been smartphone-less for a little over about 5 months; just about 170 days.

Average 7.25/hrs a day x 170 days = 1232.5 hours total/24hrs

51 full 24-hour days I got back.

ALMOST TWO MONTHS OUT OF THE FIVE

- Alright, i've never done that math before, holy shiitake mushrooms thats insane. Back on topic, oh my god I would have spent 2 months out of the past 5 entirely on my phone

What do I do instead? What consumes the hours? Or the in-passing minutes?

I live normally, just without a phone honestly, it didn't make me suddenly want to run a marathon or just turn into Picasso day one. It just gave me back the opportunity to live.

I turned to my hobbies, like ceramics, reading, journalling to bring the simple joys back into my everyday!

I stopped being able to distract myself from how icky I felt when I didn't move my body, so I slowly started swimming again!

I started to blog a little! Thanks for reading :D

I got bored at home, so I started seeking out social spaces and hanging out in person with friends and prioritizing making them!

Those are huge things, really big, hour by hour things that take up my life now. I am still a student, in a demanding major, who tries to study 5 hours a day, and I work part-time. Is that the most prominent change? Absolutely, but in the minutes passing between tasks, before I leave somewhere, waiting for something there is also a little mojo added back into my day. I would have been spending those little snippets of time pacifying myself on a quick scroll, 20-30 reels on IG that I would never remember. Instead those morsels are spent...

Doing nothing! Sitting around is a forgotten joy, don't be afraid to be alone with yourself, its the only way you will get to know you.

Sudoku! If i've got 5-10 mins waiting somewhere and feel up for the task, a quick sudoku from the little book I carry around is great.

Tidying up/cleaning! I mentioned this in a past blog post, but it's easier to keep the space around you tidy when you reclaim those little minuets while your breakfast is cooking or your waiting for the water to boil. Bagel still in the toaster? Why not give the kitchen a quick sweep! Coffee is steeping? Wouldn't you know it, thats how long it takes for me to unload the dishwasher! (still a student living at home, that dishwasher is a FULL 4-person dishwasher man)

People watching, takin' a quick ol' gander at your surroundings. Make sure you haven't forgotten what life looks like, or what the general population is up to.

I still spend some time on Tumblr, Reddit, and Pinterest, its not like I went cold turkey or that I'll never see social media again. Its easier to live your life when you have the time, and its easier to have the time when you don't have a monster algorithm in your pocket built to addict you. You can do it! Do it at the pace that is good for you, but get those two months back!

"Making systems resilient is fundamentally at odds with optimization, because optimizing a system means taking out any slack. A truly optimized, and thus efficient, system is only possible with near-perfect knowledge about the system, together with the ability to observe and implement a response. For a system to be reliable, on the other hand, there have to be some unused resources to draw on when the unexpected happens, which, well, happens predictably." (Deb Chachra, How Infrastructure Works, p. 209) Another way to look at this is that you cannot optimize for resilience. Resilience requires a kind of elasticity, an ability to stretch and reach but then to return, to spring back into a former shape—or perhaps to shapeshift into something new if the circumstances require it. Resilience is stretchy where optimization is brittle; resilience invites change where optimization demands continuity.

Say 'opt' five times in a row. It makes your mouth bounce with horse hooves.

[fairies-ask-legend-answers]

I'm making a small adjustment

I'm making a decision to hopefully help speed things along on here. I'm going to focus a little less on making sure my art looks perfect. Perfect lines, perfect hands, perfect hair... the hands and hair really get me sometimes

If I keep posting at this rate I won't have all these asks answered for at least a couple years or possibly longer 👀 💧

I completely underestimated what having a blog like this would require so I'm going to have to improvise for everyone's sake. Possibly messier drawings, a very limited amount of time that I can accept requests... things like that

Obedience AU where Rizeth never left Menzoberranzan and meets Ashenivir when he comes to Sorcere as part of an outreach from from the Arcanum because Archmage T'sonri is trying to make better connections with other arcane institutions

Ashenivir bit by bit breaking through the cold hard shell of survival that never got even remotely cracked by getting to the surface or meeting Elian'la. Rizeth, knowing a relationship would like as not doom the both of them, unable to keep himself from falling for this hopelessly optimistic, idealistic, too smart to be this naive about life boy anyway.

Ashenivir trying to convince Rizeth to run away to Mythen Thaelas with him. Rizeth refusing because that only ends in death; there's no chance of him getting away without being noticed or missed, his House would hunt him down, he's valuable to them.

But then running away anyway, because he's in love.

"Life is so hard nowadays" - yes, but we still have it easier than generations of people before us. Humans have lived through world wars, plagues, that killed like half of the population in some places, famines, not to mention, that they didn't have the technology we have now, so their everyday lifes were much harder. Yet, so many of them endured and thrived, and continued the progress, so we could have what we have nowadays. Despite all the hardships, today's world is full of opportunities. I'm not telling you to just be strong and never complain on anything. I'm telling you not to wallow in self-pity and to appreciate the world previous generations have built for us. I'm telling you to take the opportunities most people before you didn't have and use them to create an even better world for the next generations. Think about it: how many of your ancestors could only dream of getting an education, having a high-paying job, sending their kids to school, travelling the world etc.? I don't want to sound like a boomer, saying "Today's youth have it easier than us, so they're lazy, spoiled brats!" (I'm 26 at the moment of writing this post, so I'm "today's youth", too). What I want to say is "Today's youth have it easier, than the previous generations and it's a good thing. That's what all the hard work of people before us was for. Let's continue this trend! Let's use today's opportunities to continue the progress and built an even better future for our kids, grandkids and next generations!". Appreciate the work people who lived before you had to put in to make your life better and continue this work to make it better for the ones who come after you.

This joy is not your own, quit living the borrowed life!!!

Social media and the algorithm is like sugar water for your soul instead of milk, you will not sustain on it, and you can not continue to neglect growing your own roots. You reap what you sow! Love is for those who love the work! Let others inspire you, let your community motivate you, but please God learn to love the work. Have days where you create without looking at Pinterest when you get lost, let it take hours, let it take days! What are you trying to be free of? The LIVING? The miraculous task of it? - feeling very fired up by the poem "For the Student who used AI to write a Paper" by Joseph Fasano and a small line from Blue Period where Yatora says 'this joy is not my own' while watching TV. Its so easy to not do things when you can get the dopamine by watching other people do those things, but gosh does is slowly poison you and your soul. If you feel like you are not living your life, consider your choices, one of the being a flip-phone, please life can be so much better :3 Ask yourself what I did and still do:

When is the last time I felt joy of my own creation and accomplishment?

How much do I spend in the fields of boredom, the birthplace of imagination?

Where does my artistic soul flow from when its not curated by other people’s work?
