I burnt out from my gap semester.. but I learned this

attempting at a video essay (again-ish if you count the Seoul vlog as one) because I've been thinking a lot about the idea of balance between work, the way we put worth and value on ourselves, the way we nurture our identities, and the way we might want to rethink how we spend our time.

annnnd I hope this can be a reminder for you to know that you are enough just as you are 🌱🙏🏼💛

This is so insightful and I am not done with school yet, but I will definitely take this into consideration when I go to collage and start working

hi misato !!! It's always great to see your videos and thank you for sharing you vulnerable moments with us :) I had a somewhat similar relationship with my work/school life so I feel for you. As university students (and other societal pressure + etc) it's like we're almost conditioned to live as our future selves so we do everything it takes for that distant life only to neglect our present day self! I'm so glad that you managed to catch yourself and had a rest. I hope you enjoy your last semester while finding time for things that matter to you :)

it may be a lesson for all of us about the Universal Law of Yin & Yang.
Sometimes we place our identity in the Yang. Some others place their identity on the Yin. We also have the opportunity to place our Identity on our Awareness of bigger Universal Laws and chowing to live in “balance” IN them. Sometimes we need more Yang than Yin, sometimes we need more Ayón than Yang. And each one of us has a different unique balance though space and time, our unique experience of space and time.
We may “listen” to our souls in connection to the All, and find our own balance, including celebrating our own discovery journey, where sometimes we may not make the best choice about that balance, but hey that’s part of our discovery journey back I to balance.
