Day two


Upon looking through my photos from this summer, I stumbled upon some photos from my brother's cottage. My nephew is 2 and a half, and the sweetest child I've ever gotten to know. We were very fortunate to have a long weekend with them. The memories I treasure the most aren't the posed photos we have, but the candid shots of him while he helped with little chores. He is a great source of inspiration for me.

One of my first outings after I spent a long time avoiding the public was to the museum with him. It was amazing how I almost immediately focused my attention on making him feel less overwhelmed and anxious by the large crowds. I realized I had the power to overcome my own anxieties, without medications or avoidance. And thus sparked my journey into recovery and self awareness.

Thank you Georgie :)
