Hideandgosnack.

An ode to @hideandgosnack. It’s amazing to look back on it now. At the time when I started it things in my life felt hard. And it was this idea that kept coming back to me. To start an Instagram account with healthy snack and kids play ideas. I didn’t know exactly why at the time, but I knew I had to do it. And I loved to do it. But it wasn’t easy. It took me a painstakingly amount of time to write each post. I fussed about every detail. I rarely thought I got it ‘right’. I questioned each decision I made with it. By the end I wondered why I had done it in the first place.

But when I looked back on it yesterday I saw it with different eyes. It was perfect. Each post. Every decision I made. It was exactly as it should have been. I had it right all along. And I knew exactly what I was doing. And I could see exactly the reason why I did it.

It wasn’t just about kids snacks and activities, it was so much more. I did it because I valued health. I did it because I valued creativity. I did it because I valued possibility. This was my way of expressing it and embodying it. And sharing it was a way of creating community around me. All things that are still of utmost importance to me.

It’s never just about the idea. It’s about you. The idea is just the vehicle for the person you are becoming.

And there will never be just one idea. There will always be many.

And each idea will be evidence of a progression of yourself.

So create. It’s already perfect. There’s always a point. And the point is you.

A great reminder to myself I continue to embark on creative adventures.
