I so resonate with your post Jenna and recently I’ve been practicing more gratitude to reduce the amount of comparisons I make. I am finding it helpful to look for what I can be thankful for in someone else’s ✍️ ❤️

I’m so glad you resonated with this Beverley, thank you! Yes, that’s a great way to balance - be grateful for our own journey, but use others for inspiration, not comparison or jealousy.

I think we are all poems, each of us. Maybe we all need to write about a poem who doesn’t feel like a poem. What would your poem sound like?

Oh yes! That would be a great poem to write. I will ponder over the words and let them come to me.

I can resonate that sometimes we don't feel like anything. It's normal...

Thank you for reading, I’m glad it helped. I still very much feel contradicted with comparison, but I feel thinking this way helps x
