"The misfit doesn't climb in pursuit of safety or profit. She climbs to tell stories. She gets off the ladder and onto the swings. Swinging back and forth." - Michaela Coel

Did you know?

Current situation... Signing additional prints of my fine art photography, which is sold through @editionvulfovitch. These usually end up in various galleries and through select art sites. One of many outlets which I use to share my work with the world.

The last few months have been very exhausting in many ways.

Emotionally, physically, mentally.

From the daily bombardment of heart-gutting news. Of constant hate. Of worrying about the constant state of the world. Of people suffering in so many ways. Of wondering WTF is going on in Sweden regarding COVID. Of weeding out frenemies from friends.

Of trying to support within my power. Of pouring into people who never consider sharing drops of support for others or back. Of managing expectations. Of navigating and acknowledging all the individual battles everyone is personally fighting. Of never having to feel entitled for the sake of entitlement. Of helping those who don’t seem to want to help themselves.

Of making sure I’m fully there for my nearest and dearest.

I am tired in many ways. So tired.

Yet, I continue to show up. I continue to show up fully.

I take breaks when I need to. I carve time for self-care as often as is feasible. I’m so grateful to God because, as @luvvie always says, my helpers have begun to find me.

Most importantly, I have long committed my life to God because He can do (and continues to do) so much more with my life than I could ever dream of doing.

So the purpose of this post?

Even though I am a polymath/multipod who does so many things, I am not superhuman. I can only live my truth and show up fully as my complete myself. If that’s on a different wavelength, then that’s what it is.

I get very tired too. And right now, I’m exhausted and my boundaries are only going to get tighter because they need to be over the next few months.

For those of you who continue to support my work and purpose, thank you so much! ❤️

For those who have actually asked me in the midst of this all, “Lola, how are you feeling?”...You mean the world to me 🙏🏾❤️

So... please keep living your truth even if it makes you tired sometimes 🙌🏾💕
