There seems to be a theme for me lately, “Finding Self”. I grew up very religious. I have some religious trauma that I am working on in therapy and I’m realizing how religion seeped into almost every aspect of my life. I deconstructed my faith but I never deconstructed how that faith affects me in non religious context. I am an agnostic atheist now and am learning to navigate the world without religion. I’m learning who I am without religion as well. Growing up I was always told who I was, rather, who I was supposed to be. From 4yrs old to 29, I was trying to fit into this precut mold, shoving the overlapping parts of me inside as if they were always meant to be there. I was a Christian. I was a follower of Christ. I was only what “god” approved of me to be, and by “god” I mean my pastor, elders, and parents. I never really had the opportunity to explore self and who she was meant to be. Taking religion away, taking god out of the equation, taking back my autonomy, has been a difficult, painful, lonely road but I found my way out and I have no regrets. One thing I still struggle with is self. One of the recent mediations was asking “who am I?”, a question I have been scared to face because I didn’t know how to answer. Reading through some of your responses and posts encouraged me to face that question head on and really consider who I am and who I want to be. In the last meditation I did on gratitude I was finally able to confidently say I am grateful for myself and who I am becoming. I still have a long journey ahead but I’m no longer afraid or holding back. I’m thankful for this community of online strangers and I’m rooting for anyone who is on the same journey!

Ok … so .. thought I’d give it a try this morning. My bus journey can be quite stress inducing and I like to retreat into my bubble. It worked pretty well and I made sure I knew i had plenty of stops to go so that I wasn’t distracted by worrying I’d miss my stop. Also my exhalation wasn’t the usual haaaaaaaaa - was a little bit more discreet. I am pretty fuckless but don’t want people to think im losing the plot and kick me off the bus 😂😂😂😂

If the pic did justice, the internet would explode. So grateful for Mother Moon 🌚
