Your Social Media if FOR YOU

Dear Reader,

I have been learning more about self-expression - the expression of one's feelings, thoughts, or ideas, especially in writing, art, music, or dance - and how important it truly is.

My older sister, Nai, sent me an Instagram reel with the trending sound - your social media is not for your friends, your social media is for you and your self-expression.

And it is so true! Yet so many people still believe their accounts and profiles are for other people. They either don’t post or only post what they believe their audience wants to see. But that is not what it is made for, it is FOR YOU t express yourself. Through your photos, videos, music, outfits, etc.

Since I’ve left Aus I have been posting a lot more content on Instagram and I have lost a lot of followers and gained a few but it doesn’t really phrase me because I am posting what is authentic to me so I can express myself.

Verse Vista with Kaila is another way I can express myself. I have 3 goals with each piece I send:

1. it is relatable to the reader and they can feel heard and seen by it

2. it inspires the reader and ignites something new in them

BUT… most importantly

1. it is FOR ME to have my voice, thoughts, and feelings heard by whoever wants to listen

Please don’t let other people’s opinions affect your self-expression and start posting whatever you want!

All my love,

Kaila 💌
