The quiet parts of our 20s

A lot gets said about the chaos of being in your 20s, but not much about the quiet parts. The late nights when you’re just sitting with your thoughts. The mornings where you feel older than you should. The moments that don’t make it into stories, but still shape you.

I’ve been thinking about how those quiet spaces feel — sometimes heavy, sometimes comforting, sometimes just strange.

What are the quiet parts of your life right now, the ones nobody usually asks you about?

When I'm stressed no one wants to know 🥺

When you say no, and stop being convenient people stop listening 🥺

When you are struggling, people listen for a short time but then the excuses arrive 🥺
