as I love myself

Turns out, I’m not very good at being with myself. I’ve spent so much time trying to outrun my desire, my anger, and my tenderness because those things have always felt much more like afflictions than gifts. The question of what I want has always been a bit intimidating, but these days, I’m trying to slow down a bit and listen to what my body and soul are saying.

The anti-resolution (a few things I learned to love about myself in 2017).

A few years ago, Erin Loechner over at Design for Mankind chose to end her year by doing something kind of crazy. She shared a list of non-goals—things about her life that she was resolving to keep exactly the same. It's no secret that this time of year, we come back to the drawing board with lengthy lists of things we're dissatisfied with.
