I’m visiting London & Oxford, exploring parks & museums largely alone. The first few days felt uncomfortable, lonely and selfish (for abandoning all “work”).
But I stuck to the one expectation I had - taking myself out on artist dates & choosing mystery > mastery.
My feet are sore like never before but I’ve gotten the precious chance to walk into the lives of so many lovely cousins, friends, and kind strangers. It’s been energizing and exhausting, all at once.
And while this holiday has been an escape from my normal life, its ironically revealed more of myself to me than my normal life ever could.
As Sookrit told me once, things are almost always bound to get worse before they get better.
Thinking of you Vasant Chacha!

I now know that can be true for holidays too! :)
