I feel like I keep thinking about it every single day… 😂😅 half of my family is in Lebanon and my sister are here in Canada with me I kept moving back and forth between those 2 countries for the last 4years and moving in circle neither building a life here nor there nor quite sure what to work in either
I’m the same with Scotland and Melbourne. I’m starting to build the belief that it’s okay to have different eras. A Canada era, a Lebanon era and maybe somewhere else entirely. Try not to lose the moment thinking about the future x
Thanks for the advise yeah your right. I mean currently in Montreal, my dad asked me today so are you staying in Canada ? And I didn’t know what to awnser I mean I was just supposed to rent out my apartment back in February then war started so I did not come back… all my friends and family are moving the corporate ladder while I am floating around in limbo, I hope I can one day make sense of things and feel like I am finally connecting the dots
When you don't see yourself where you are but don't know where you belong yet, that paralysis is real. And a shared experience. I have been away from my soul city for 6 years and the feeling of finally returning this year is fundamentally changing my mental health and outlook of life. Be gentle with yourself and patient. It is not indecision, it is waiting for clarity that might take time to arrive ♥️
“the time i could spend living is spent deciding” is such an uncomfortably real sentence.
i think so many of us confuse overthinking with control, when really it’s often just fear wearing a very intelligent outfit 😭 and the line about curating instead of choosing feels especially true now. everything has started to feel loaded with identity and consequence, even tiny decisions.
also “just buy the phone” genuinely made me laugh because sometimes that really is the deepest life advice possible.
We are not just choosing, we are curating (although I have beef with the term curating). Constantly optimising. And the time we could spend living is spent deciding. That hits so hard. And you are right, indecision is often fear wearing a more intellectual outfit. We tell ourselves we are being thoughtful when really we are terrified of making the wrong choice and having to live with it publicly. At some point you have to participate in your own life. Not optimise it, just live it ♥️
But what about feeling stuck, not seeing yourself in the country you are currently living, but also not knowing where to live or what to work in...
Girl, that’s the thoughts I leave until 3am. This is just a general 😂

Just buy the phone was absolutely aimed at myself. But I’m glad you resonate and also sorry that you do! It’s crippling!! But hopefully this helped 🤭
