Found a cute lil milkweed beetle while watering the garden. I must have gave it a bath because I noticed a little water droplet on it's back πŸ˜… I cleaned out one of my garden beds where I attempted a chaos garden but left some of the milkweed plants and rose bush because I wanna see the butterflies πŸ’•

πŸ¦‹ Mental health post ...a little long and it might get a little heavy but I promise not to get into any details to avoid triggers. 🫢 I've been hesitating to post these words and keep rewriting everything I say, so now, I'm just gonna post before I add or rewrite anything else. πŸ¦‹

Butterflies, for me, have always been a reminder of hope, growth through the struggle, and letting go.

I love this capture of a Tiger Longwing Butterfly. When I saw this particular one, I immediately noticed a semicolon on its wings.

A semicolon is widely known as a symbol for those who have struggled with depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, addiction, and trauma. In literature, it is used when an author could have ended a sentence but chose not to. Your story isn't over. 🀍

I have struggled with mental health my entire life. It is alot better now than it ever has been but I still have dark days.

I don't talk too much anymore about my past, as I feel like I have enough already. Not many listened. There was and still is stigma around mental health, so I struggled alot alone. It was hard to find the help I needed and was put on alot of unnecessary meds. I am no longer on a self destructive path though and I learned to just focus on my healing journey and have started to find some peace.

I do still struggle when darkness creeps in every now and then but my little family brings me back every time. I just take the moments as they come...not even taking it one day at a time, but more like one breath at a time.

Sometimes I really have to slow it down and that's where my love and passion come in for photography πŸ“Έ πŸ’– It can be an expensive hobby. But it has been the best therapy.

If you need help, please reach out. I know it's easier said than done, but please don't give up. Keep going. You are loved and needed more than you think. You are important. You are enough. πŸ«Άβœ¨οΈπŸ’•πŸ¦‹

Sorry for not responding to any comments the past couple days. I was tent camping in an area without reception but I will be getting to them now. I brought my Canon T7 along but didn't use it πŸ˜… most of the time we were in conditions I didn't wanna expose my camera to (for example - on the river while tubing for 6 hours) and then the sun was so bright one day I couldn't see anything on my camera lol. These were the times I was glad to have a decent camera on my phone...until it died and no way to charge it πŸ˜‚
Here are a few photos from my trip using my phone. 🫢
If you're in Nebraska and haven't been there yet, Smith Falls State Park is beautiful 😍 Seeing the waterfall was such a memorable experience.
