På senare tid har jag hört många som klagar på instagram, det sätter för mycket press med stylade bilder, man får ångest av att se andra människors lyckade liv i små fyrkanter medan man själv är misslyckad. Typ. Jag känner inte alls igen mig i det tankesättet, jag jämför inte mitt liv med de jag följer på instagram, däremot inspireras jag! Det är svårt att förklara hur, men @heysweetpea gjorde det så bra att jag lånar de orden här:
"What I've realized over the years is that life is hard for everyone. In different ways, of course. But there are battles we are all fighting, obstacles we are all overcoming, fears we are all facing.
So when I see pretty pictures posted here and happy stories shared, I am deeply moved. Not because someone's life is better, or cooler, or more blessed than mine. But because, despite the wars they are facing, they are choosing to find beauty in it. And despite their battle scars, they are sharing the blessing they've still found.
So I hope you, my dearest storytellers, keep posting your pretty pictures, your happy moments, and your blessing amongst the ashes. Because yes, life is hard and messy and complicated. But every time you find the good, or share how you've overcome the bad, you're inspiring me (and so many others) to do the same. From my heart to yours: Thank you for letting goodness win."
Amen to that!
