I am a homebody who values time at home. If that time isn't enough, I feel needlessly anxious. However, on the other hand, I also love the terrace on sunny days and Han River Park; creating memories with loved ones and filling my life with diverse experiences in the wider world are important to me as well. In terms of proportion, it’s roughly 70-80% home versus 20-30% outside. The season has arrived when the balance between these two axes is easily disrupted. As the weather improved and I began trying out various new things, I went out every single day for two weeks without fail. While I was certainly overwhelmed with happiness, I feel like I have lost my direction slightly. Whether I like it or not, when impactful emotions or experiences pile up all at once, the sensation that I cannot fully focus on each one makes me feel overwhelmed. Therefore, I need time to ruminate on and organize what I have felt, and to empty the input within me. Of course, I don't have to record everything; there are emotions that remain fulfilling even without being recorded. But perhaps it is because emotion belongs more to the realm of sentiment than reason. In my case, it seems that creative activities often provide a release. I diagnosed myself by thinking that when my documentation activities—such as photography, videography, or writing—stagnate or fall behind, my emotions feel like they are in the same state, causing me to feel anxious. Actually, today was supposed to be a day off for the first time in two weeks, but an unscheduled appointment came up. It was important work that I couldn't skip, so I took the time to document my home while preparing breakfast, which I had deliberately skipped for a few days. As I returned home and took a breather to write, the tempo of my anxious mind felt much lighter. I actually welcome this cloudy day where my heart isn't racing. I haven't captured the wonderful moments from my birthday yet, but I should take my time and record them now! Just as my home gives me peace of mind, it seems that documenting my home is doing the same. Whenever I feel anxious, I will take out this post from today to reflect on the reasons and direction of my documentation. #Sora'sToday #오늘의집 #SpecialCreator #오늘의집크리에이터
