Silence

Dear Reader,

I think we have all grown accustomed to living in the chaos.

The new normal is to constantly be surrounded by sound that we don’t even have time to listen to ourselves.

We choose to drown out ourselves with what is going on around us.

During my last few months in Australia, I was working 5 different jobs and didn’t have a moment to even think to myself.

Even driving to and from places I would be on call trying to catch up with a friend.

But now living on this small island with just my family I find myself sitting in the silence a lot.

It’s something that I’m excited to lean into and be comfortable with.

Going for a walk or laying in the sun with no music or no video playing and just letting myself be in silence.

I want you to try it sometime this week. Don’t drown out your thoughts but acknowledge them and understand yourself better by being comfortable alone with them.

All my love,

Kaila 💌
