This whole idea of "trying harder" makes me tired. And you are so right that we can't untangle our individual experience from the collective experience of all women. We can't "try harder" our way toward liberation. We must let our roots talk to each other, our earthen selves. Your idea of being the earth rather than the flower will stay with me for a long time. Thank you.
Thank you Holly. I so appreciate your comment and I love the idea you introduced of the roots connecting underground. We need that now more than ever. I agree trying harder exhausts me - and I feel it plays into the ‘good girl’ archetype which many women are taught to function within. We can only be free when we can be wild, lazy, angry - all of it - and it cant be our individual responsibilities to change a system which is not working with us. ⭐️💪🏻
I LOVE that Jacoda. That is exactly why I wrote it. And I think writing it and especially publishing it helped me expand a bit too. Thank you for connecting.
