So much this. The couple of months I tried TikTok to see if it was for me (nope nope nope!), I did find lots of people who were raw and honest and I thought it was beautiful. It was so much more real than I'm used to on Instagram and it felt like a relief. I'm sure there are people with picture perfect TikTok accounts, but the algorithms must have figured out quickly that I don't care for that at all ;)
It feels to me like more and more of us are seeking authenticity rather than curated personas, and that has to be a good thing; here's to being perfectly imperfect, or in other words, human!
Nature works with "good enough" The Antelope only has to be fast enough to escape a leopard, not break the sound barrier. Striving for cheerful mediocrity in most things and being a bit better or worse in others is the lot of most of us. Let's raise a pint glass (or botta bag of retsina wine) to all of us peasants, and share out the picnic.

I couldn't agree more!

Couldn’t agree more, Laura!
