@karid_nomad: Keep moving forward…don’t stop! We did not come here to live a life that requires us to abandon ourselves to fit in, be someone, make lots of money, buy the next new thing, to keep consuming in order to fill a void that we have since forgotten. It’s okay if people don’t understand your path. Abandoning your path to walk a path you were told to could not possibly have long lasting effects on who you become. And the reality is, we are always becoming. I don’t know about you, but I’m constantly learning something new about myself. It shifts me and ultimately my trajectory. How do I know that? Because when I look back on areas of my life that were “follow MY path or go the path I have been told I should or think I should go” moments…the me that I am today would have handled those moments differently than the me who was still at the early stages of the curriculum. But looking back, I can’t help but want to hug that version of me 🥺, when another version of me was just mad at her 🤬. Growth ❤️. Don’t give up…EVER! Keep moving forward, even if you have to crawl your way you yourSELF, like I have. Though I don’t recommend. 🥴 You deserve to be who YOU are and to live a life in alignment with that. Period. And sometimes that looks like a woman finding her inner wild, spiritually aligning life, “living in a van down by the river”. 😉😆🙌🏼💫 Also, side note…my photographer dad said this picture was “magnificent”! As a 49 year old woman fulfilling her dream as a photographer, I am over the moon about that compliment. 🥹 Little me feels so BIG! 🥰 In love, Kari PS: if you’d like pictures like this in your inbox or mailbox, click the link in my bio and go to “Membership”. 😉🫶🏼 #photography #naturephotography #nomad #dontgiveup #beyouSELF
