Yes, I feel this too. Sometimes I think it's good to forget everything and start again.

So true. It's a bit scary, but true!

It is very good to have you back, Akiko. I am looking forward to seeing your posts and your work again. I think I understand finding moments of aliveness within our work and I wish you happiness on your creative journey.

Relating very much to this with my young baby and limited time! I feel directionless with my work. Aliveness is a good thing to look for, I'm going to try it. 🤍
