I thought about this. Its a feeling of being alone and wanting something soothing, soul satisfying, a deep yearning for something more but not quite sure what that something is. The uncertainty comes from the fact that you have your family maybe a friend here or there you occasionally meet for coffee, whatsapp family connections and the once in a while somewhat enjoyable Netflix binge series that you struggle to get through towards the end. Thats good, I think but is it enough? Theres still this longing and I believe its the need for the outside world. A community of vulnerable people be it friends family or strangers, who share in each others lives and experiences intermittently. The random but frequent meetings, the smiles, greetings and sharing of life in ways that we laugh cry support and grieve together. In ways that feed our souls. In raw, unfiltered, authentic ways. In ways that strengthen us so we can go back to our nests refreshed and filled ready to pour. I need this world.
