Five minutes.
Thatās longer than I usually ask anyone to sit with one of my thoughtsā¦ š
But this one has been quietly changing shape in my head for a while. It started as frustration about engagement.
Then I looked at it again. And again.
And somewhere along the way, the frustration softened into something else: acceptance.
I donāt spend 24/7 on Tangled. I have a life outside this screen ā a home, family, walking, exercise, crochet, photography, music, #TangledSteps , random creative rabbit holesā¦ and all the ordinary bits of life in between.
So perhaps thereās a simple truth I needed to accept: If I choose not to live online, I canāt expect to always be the most visible person online.
And you know what? I think Iām finally okay with that.
I still love being here. Iāll still create. Iāll still post. Iāll still pop up with my photography, yarn, music, weirdness and whatever else Iāve wandered into that week. š
This video is just me thinking out loud about where Iāve landed with all of it.
So yesā¦ itās five minutes.
Grab a coffee, tea, water ā or whatever keeps you going ā and have a listen. āš
And if you make it to the end, Iād genuinely love to know:
How do you balance being present online with actually living your life offline? š

Some kindness deserves more than a quick reaction.
Not because of a number attached to it, but because behind every tip is a little message that says, āI saw this. I appreciated it. Keep going.ā
And that means more than you probably realise.
Creating and sharing pieces of yourself online can sometimes feel a little like tossing something into the wind and wondering where it lands. Then someone comes along, quietly supports what you do, and reminds you that it did land somewhere.
So this is simply me noticing you noticing me. š¤š
Thank you for the generosity, the encouragement, and for making this creator smile more than once lately.
Very much appreciated. šæāØ
