hi, tara <3 glad hearing/ reading news from these days while i was taking notes for uni i was listening ur playlist, u really created incredible atmosphere for listeners, thank you :) i like to read ur thoughts on friday when the week over and i need to hear people's thoughts, but today i'm feeling little tired due my reading uni routine so i decided to open my email box and read you.
i love lavender too, long time ago searching about color means in psychlogy perspective i find out "the lavender color encourages calmness and tranquility of mind and is useful for both self-reflection and invoking a relaxed, meditative state." i think it's one If reasons why smelling lavender makes me so calm and be able to breathe again. i like what you did said about joy and happiness, cuz i truly believe happiness is like a breezy in our days, we can't hold up happiness forever, because we need some rain days or feeling sad, there's no sunshine without rain, so when start to find and see happiness in simple things and not wanting for the big moment where the happiness will shows up in our door, it worth living. the society often says about happiness associating with partners, things you can buy etc which doesn't fit what happiness is.
i have this philospohy of finding happiness in nature, so everyday i see a tree, the sky, feel the breezy it's my definition of brief moments of happiness, being happy must be easy if we look at those things, still we can look at it and not having good day and that's okie, tomorrow is waiting for give us another try
if i look back in my memories i have precious moments when i feel joy and in my opinion joy and peace holds hands all time, i remember when i was into meditation and i listened a guide meditation lesson about listening ur breath, few days later surrounded by the waves on the beach i closed my eyes and listened with attention my breath and i feel joy.
i hope lavender smell follow ur step wherever you go, thank you for sharing your days, thoughts and feelings with us, thank u for trust in us about that, stay safe, take care <3
hi mandie! sorry this took me so long to read and reply to but i really find so much value in your words and insights, thank you so much for sharing <3 i have a lavender diffuser and i always find it helps me breathe a little better and deeper which probably has a lot to do with the psychological/healing effects. i like your idea of happiness as a breeze -- its like on a hot day where the breeze though fleeting can bring so much relief even long after it's disappeared. and you're absolutely right, tomorrow is waiting for us !!!! thank you so much for reading and for your incredibly thoughtful comment!!! sending much love, hope your days are treating you well
hey there! I hope this finds you well- I was doing some late night browsing and saw I hadn't read this yet. I'm glad I took the time to stop and read it. It really helped to cement a couple of ideas I've been thinking about lately. I really enjoyed the poem, and your commentary on joy versus happiness. wishing you the best of luck on your dissertation!
