disclaimer: i know it's not the beginning of the year lol but i never posted this and i thought it was still relevant + it's important to me
hope u enjoy :))

what is the point
of saying we want to be happier in the new year
if we chain ourselves down
and watch our motivation disappear

we're hypocrites; we boast that we will feel lighter and freer
everything we weren't last year
yet we feel beaten down by the goals we made
because we're too focused on the end goal and not the process

so this year, i do want to be happier
and lighter
and freer
but i want to achieve that not by strict rules
or words i spit out weeks ago

i want to let all expectations go
so i can actually be
freer
lighter
happier
on the journey; not just when i get there.
