since 14 days we are in buenos aires and i really become super depressed. i feel kind of useless, having no real friends. deleted mastodon and exited all matrix channels. city life destroys my creative soul. really looking forward to move on tomorrow... nature is the answer

@mrtobinhood5 wow, well put! I can concur. I also found that listening to podcasts helps alleviate the sense of loneliness and spark ideas on how to get creative. Deliberately choose to do something difficult, esp craft or DIY as a side project, it gives a sense of purpose and a challenge that is deeply satisfying as you progress. 路 2 months ago
I know the feeling. nature is always good and seeking out a creative outlet is comforting.
you know, being alone with your own thoughts is scary, especially since we live in a fast paced world and slowing down sometimes feels wrong but it's a good place to be. reflection and contemplating one's own purpose can change your mind to do some really creative things.
the art of slowing down is a skill that has to be practiced if you've been in a hurry for many years. it feels wrong at first but there's something so immersive about sitting outside listening to birds and wind alone with your thoughts doing nothing.
doing nothing deliberately is not the same as doing nothing 路 2 months ago
