Feeling Like You Don't Belong | How I Found Home | Slow Living in English Countryside in Spring

Where is your home? Where do you belong? These are the questions I've been pondering about for as long as I can remember. Ever since childhood belonging was difficult to me. I always felt out of place - but I realised that's largely not because I was unhappy with the environment I was in, but possibly because I was unhappy with myself. It took me a long time to realise what home really is. Where I truly belong. It's still a work in progress and largely depends on my relationship with my inner, most authentic self. I love this quote by Fernando Pessoa: “The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most, are those that are absurd - The longing for impossible things, precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was; the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else. All these half-tones of the soul’s consciousness create in us a painful landscape, an eternal sunset of what we are.” I think it describes these feelings beautifully. _______ Find me on Instagram: www.instagram.com/dariashew Filmed on: Fujifilm XH2S with 33mm f1/4 lens Edited with: Premiere Pro CC Music: Epidemic Sound _____ Sea location: Cuckmere Valley, Seven Sisters Cliffs _____ #slowliving #cottagecore #englishcountryside key words: slow living, cottagecore, cuckmere valley, film locations, atonement movie location, how to find where you belong, when you don't belong, i have no home, where is home, how to find home, living in english countryside, mori girl, springtime, rural living, living off grid, leaving big city, moving to the countryside, country life
