ahhhhh Caryn. this resonated with me SO much; truly countless experiences came to mind as i read. maybe (hopefully) having this lingering in my mind will give me the courage to reply in a similar fashion the next time i find myself in these shoes. thank you for the honesty and the inspiration <3

this in particular will really stick with me: "A big part of becoming myself is realising that just because I can do something, it doesn’t mean I should."

I really enjoyed this piece, Caryn! Much of what you shared resonates with me, as I’ve been thinking a lot about my energy, how to preserve it, who most deserves it, etc. One thing I’ve been tryna work on is learning how to love people from a distance, especially when we’ve known each other for a long time, but our interests and priorities have changed and continue to change.
