i’ve decided to make it official and declare that tiny house theater is a social media free zone
last year when i got back to santa cruz i decided to get off for awhile— i felt so overwhelmed and sad at the state of my life and my dreams i just couldn’t find any reason to keep on posting on my instagram, twitter, you tube or facebook
i did try to do a daily story writing for december but that didn’t last— i was crumpling into my need to grieve and check out
there is an online fabric store i buy from occasionally that started out as fabric indulgence and has now become warp and weft— the new owner stated her intention when she bought the business was to become a plastics free business
i take inspiration from her commitment to her values and how she is striving to support both her love of fabric and her decision to not be part of the plastics problem as an online seller
i feel the same way about social media— i don’t want to be a part of the self worth problem and i want to commit to making choices that are the change i want to see
i don’t believe social media is a source of support for healthy family life
i think social media is harmful to our ability to find satisfaction, connection, patience and pleasure in the real world and ourselves
and that is what tiny house theater is about— using our own, and witnessing others, creativity and imagination and work and courage to be present and connected with what is in our real lives and to find meaning, insight and inspiration through puppetry and storytelling— with fun sprinkled on top
it’s about realizing that self discovery and appreciation leads to valuing others and our world and all her creatures
i’m excited and scared to make this leap into honoring what i really believe since “everyone” tells me i can’t be successful without social media
but i’m definitely ready to decide what success means for me beyond the should’s and have to’s
my dreams have been broken so many times they have turned into pixie dust— and i’m ready to share the magic
sunflowers are a superpower for happiness and joy!
