(A pharse we artists rarley say confidently...)


From a thrift store unattractive blah, to an intertwined journey and lessons on letting go.


Scarcity


Sometimes the hardest thing to release isn’t the person, the place, or the thing itself.

It’s who we believed we were with it.

The version of us that felt chosen.Needed.Safe.Valuable.

And when it’s time to let go, fear starts talking loud.


“What if you never find this again?”“What if starting over is too hard?”“What if this was the best you could have?”

But scarcity lies.


It tells us that our worth is attached to what we can keep.It tells us that releasing something means losing ourselves.It tells us that beginning again is failure, when sometimes beginning again is mercy.


This piece is about the grip.The ache of opening your hand when everything in you wants to close it.


But maybe letting go isn’t proof that you lost.

Maybe it’s proof that you’re finally trusting there’s more life on the other side of what you were afraid to release.
