Oh I loved this! Softness looks like creating for me. I’ve been spending less time online so I can be more present and create more 🥰🤗

Wonderful poem! Softness for me looks like slowing down and being in the moment instead of ruminating on what I’m going to do or have to do next. Sometimes I throw my attention too far into the future instead of focusing on present opportunities for rest.

Thank you. It’s so hard to be in the “right now” and no matter what’s going on, worrying about tomorrow doesn’t change it.

Being present and fully myself…whether with someone, reading, traveling, or sitting alone and content. Nothing feels as liberating, exhilarating, or soft as being fully in the moment perfectly comfortable with who I am.

I hadn’t thought about it like this. There is definitely a softness in the comfort of just being myself. Thank you so much for sharing that!
