Die A Little Bit
cbr, 2025, #nowplaying, Tinashe - Die A Little Bit (feat. Ms. Banks)
Hey there, fellow seekers of truth and meaning!
Let’s talk about rebirth - but not in the way you might expect. This isn’t about grand gestures or earth-shattering revelations. It’s about the quiet revolution that happens when you choose to start anew.
Art of Disappearing
You know those moments when you feel small? When the world seems to be moving too fast, and you’re struggling to keep up? I’ve been there. We all have. But here’s the thing - sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is to step back, to disappear for a while.
I’ve embarked on a journey of renewal, and let me tell you, it’s both terrifying and exhilarating. It’s about shedding old skin, letting go of expectations, and embracing the unknown.
If you haven’t heard from me in a while, don’t reach out. I know it sounds harsh, but hear me out. This silence isn’t about rejection or isolation. It’s about growth, about creating space for something new to emerge.
In our hyper-connected world, we’ve forgotten the value of absence. We mistake constant communication for genuine connection. But sometimes, the most profound connections happen in the spaces between words, in the silence that allows us to hear our own heartbeat.
To truly start anew, we have to let parts of ourselves die. It’s a little death, a shedding of old habits, outdated beliefs, and relationships that no longer serve us. It’s scary, I won’t lie. But on the other side of that fear? That’s where the magic happens.
I’m learning to embrace these little deaths. Each one is a doorway to a new version of myself, a version that’s a little braver, a little wiser, a little more authentic.
Rebirth Playlist
Music has been my constant companion on this journey. There’s something about the right song that can capture the essence of transformation better than any words can. Find those songs that speak to your soul, that give voice to the changes you’re going through. Let them be your soundtrack as you navigate this beautiful, messy process of renewal.
To Those I’ve Left Behind
If you’re reading this and wondering why I’ve gone silent, please know it’s not about you. This journey is deeply personal, a solo expedition into the uncharted territories of my own heart. Your love and support have been the foundation that gave me the courage to take this leap. But this part of the journey? I need to walk it alone.
Invitation
To anyone feeling stuck, trapped in old patterns, or yearning for change - this is your invitation. You don’t need permission to start anew. You don’t need to explain yourself or justify your need for space. You just need to take that first step.
Remember:
Your sensitivity is not weakness.
Your struggles are not failures.
Your desire for change is not selfish.
You are allowed to grow, to change, to become. You are allowed to disappear for a while if that’s what your soul needs.
So here’s to new beginnings, to the courage of starting over, to the beauty of becoming. Here’s to dying a little bit, so we can live a whole lot more.
Stay curious. Stay humble. Stay connected - even in the silence.
Until we meet again,
Mitchell Royel
