Added 2023-04-19 18:53:01 +0000 UTCWe were not created to be machines. I have missed everyone here ✨ I am very happy to be back I recently took a bit of time away from here as life became overwhelming and too busy with my father’s and family’s needs. The weight of it all started to consume me. I was reminded over and over during this time away - we were never meant to be machines. No matter the situation. I also reflected deeper back into how I approach my work here. I love creating. It has my heart. I love dropping into that present space where my body becomes one with the music or the feeling of the wind with my body. I love capturing myself in these present moments. This is why I continue to create. It opens me. It teaches me. It ignites me. Being in this line of work, we are approached with urgency in how much we post, share, etc It makes it difficult to hold my value of a love for sharing what’s truly me and present in my body vs just created to create I made a promise to myself to stay true to that as - I value sharing what’s true of me. Not just an image. Also, we cannot show up from an empty cup. Non stop creating leads to burnout and I love this work too much to work towards that. Thank you for those who have stayed with me during this break 💛 Deep gratitude and happy to be back ✨ How has everyone been? 📸 Rafael.avcioglu
