tara, this week's newsletter gave me such a gush of nostalgia. i travelled to london with my family a couple years back. when we visited tate modern, my family realized they had absolutely no interest in art museums and decided to rest at the lobby, leaving me to go on a little adventure by myself. it was my first time in an art museum, and besides the curators walking around i was all alone too. at that moment it felt overwhelmingly romantic to walk around through the exhibits, i loved looking at all the art but i was secretly people watching too. i'm glad the rest of your solo date went well <3

I don't really have much to say this week except a quote that you may or may not be familar with from Someday I'll love Ocean Vuong - '& remember, / loneliness is still time spent / with the world.'

I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week !!

This struggle feels familiar. Wanting to share the experience of exploring with someone and yet knowing that desire can sometimes be my way of escaping from myself. Thank you for sharing. Wishing you many moments of sacredness.

hi, tara <3 the highlight of my day is check my emailbox and find out your thoughts, firstly i love it "Myth” by Atta Moharreri, i love to read how people out there see nature thank you for sharing <3 secondly i want to bring up something i've been thinking about one of my hobbies or passion better saying is reading lyrics, these days i was reflect on namjoons solo track on wings, he thinks about this place called "ttukseom" near of han river as a place when he can sit and have long breathe times, like a safe place where you can be yourself while i was reading your thoughts, i thought how we somehow finds out that place for us, as introvert person who loves quiet places to breathe and living in a noisy city it's almost Impossible having something close to quiet, i think i'm doing my best to find a place for me to rest my thoughts and soul. and i think you might be doing the same in your way looking around to finding a place where you can read your book, drink tea and breathe. i wish you the best in your days.

as always take care tara <3
