Breaking up, ending cycles, LA parties, first time facials [VIDEO DIARY #3]

[@serrgggeo]

When you clear your throat talking about the evolution of your relationship with Arrows, you see the thoughtfulness and grief a bit, not in a sad way, but in an understanding way. I think it is so healthy to let ourselves let the light come in through the wound itself...through the gratitude of great laughs together, the support that was shared, alladat!

[@yasmine_v1111]

I really appreciate how Jade explained the end of super time. Acknowledging there are two different perspectives and that there aren’t any “good” or “bad” guys. She dropped some real gems on this vid!

[@Purpleppleater42]

I went through a friend breakup this year. Had to acknowledge certain things that were not benefiting either of us so we let it fizzle out

[@kelseymay4791]

Wait why did I just binge all the supertimes and then see this. Now I’M heartbroken! Y’all had a beautiful friendship but I been there

[@chillie000]

There are levels to self-awareness… you seem pretty dialed in Jade. - AND you TRUST your reading of things, even if it’s low resolution, you get enough of feel to seem to know. Most people would be perturbed or confused by the chaos but your confidence isn’t shaken, cause you see it as waves ushering in change. You’ve cultivated a rare skill, one which takes a lot of work to get…kudos.

[@iamjadefox]

I NEEDED to read this. Especially “even if it’s low resolution.” Thank you ❤

[@punkyreggaeparty8786]

This year has had me feeling like I'm in the sunken place. But I am hopeful, optimistic all that, in understanding things will get better...eventually...wishing everybody a better head space and good vibes in the coming year.

[@matxtheking]

Oh yes, for me this year was tough. I feel like people got over the whole pandemic so fast and I really didn't. I struggled this year more than last year and at the same time I know I changed a lot of things that will help me in the long run but right now it's very difficult. My therapist said it's going to be worse before it gets better. So I hope next year is going to be the better year. ❤

[@punkyreggaeparty8786]

@@matxtheking Yes. I feel this. It feels like so much has been hard and we keep hearing things will "go back to normal". But I think, for now, this is the new normal, and its important to learn how to cope with it.

[@circleofleaves2676]

Recognising when something has run its course is healthy. There's a difference between making compromises, and feeling compromised, and when one starts to stray into the other, it's ok to call it a day and just peace-out before it strays into something more gnarly.

[@kiragreen95]

I feel like I wanted 2023 to be a year about me and what I wanted for myself, but I used it and what people thought of me to bring me down. I allowed another person's views to really question who I was and begged this person to let me prove to them that I'm not who they think I am. The whole time I should have been thinking "they don't even know who you are sweetie!". I'm hoping that next year I really break away from the people pleasing triggers and really allow myself to think "you're a cool guy, and you don't need any validation." You have inspired me for many years, and I really enjoy your content and your journey to being the person you wanna be. :)

[@iamjadefox]

what ppl think of you will never be as important as what you think of yourself, so do YOU always

I'm sad but this seems like the right thing. Excited for whats next ❤

[@marou55ia_]

Continue to follow what you know. You are the only one who knows yourself. Your most authentic self is your brightest. Your parents lives their lives and made their choices. But this is your life. It's normal to want to be yourself in every room you're in. About the friend break up, honestly, I was only watching for you. I think the conversations you have with yourself and the camera are the most interesting. Not here to bash but it is my opinion that Arrows is very performative and if the vibe isn't there, if the will isn't there, why would you? You deserve to be in spaces and with people who value you. Not people who see an opportunity out of you, or people who are conditional and who makes you feel like their time is more valuable than yours. That's not acceptable. You're the creator I relate to the most, literally, in my life. Your sense of humour, passion for letters, bluntness, charisma, I'm also 33 and a lesbian, the way you process information, there is a lot that I relate to in you. Your light shines my path and your light is always bright when you love yourself. To love yourself is to know yourself. Good for you that you know what's important to you. This is your life and life is now. Embrace this new journey, let go of what feels heavy, bask in the sun of your life you know. Wishing you all the best and it's a priviledge to witness your life. Thank you for sharing.

[@BiancaDiaz-g5r]

Had to come back to this like three different times because I honestly think I wasn’t ready to hear some of these things. But each time it’s reminded me of my New Year’s resolution which is to just live and not take things so seriously! We’re all humaning around here for the first time. It’s okay to let things go, let people be, let decisions just be that, let events happen without you, just float along in the world. Thank you for this.

[@ciairian]

it feels as if you're saying exactly what i've been dealing with too. the grief of what you used to call normal is a hard pill to swallow. the beauty of it is, just as you were saying, you get to find more of yourself in curiosity. being able to surrender and allow the dust to settle is challenging, but i've never learned more in my life than in these moments. much love to you, jade!

[@LilMissae]

I'm excited to see what's next for you Jade, I fell off awhile back but this video was cathartic to listen to. We all go through the quiet chaos but I think it's the universe rearranging your life to make space for what's next. Also, I really like your hair like this!

[@cherrelle8468]

THE SKIN IS SKINNINGGGGGG

[@loganw4686]

I've been struggling with a friend breakup, too. Although like you're suggesting here, it was more of a natural divergence that had been happening for quite some time but that was hard to articulate plainly. I think we'll do pretty much anything to avoid ourselves and the creative, disquieting space that opens up when we finally deal with our shit-- with what we want/what it'll mean for other people/the work it'll take to get there. much easier to keep doing the same thing we've always been doing (which includes deeply entrenched relational dynamics). Im not sure if I'll regret it or not, but I might regret never trying at all even more. Anywho it was helpful to hear you talk abt that same divergence with boldness and grace

[@loganw4686]

Also the specific comment abt resisting the "shedding people who don't serve me" narrative is so good. people can shed me, too, shit 😂

I'm actively working on healing, forming boundaries, and communicating my actual needs vs appeasing / minimizing myself... And I appreciated the distinction you made between surrendering, giving up, and failure.

hoping things get better for you real soon ❤️

[@Candies1Creations]

Have to remember all the good when going through changes and situations that are difficult.

[@Lisa_Flowers]

I'm just living. And trying to not think about it too hard. Because that's where my capacity is at currently. Like we taking things a day at a time until we're able to make longer term plans. But until then i'm just trying to survive the chaos of every day and prioritize what's important to me and taking care of myself. Literally cutting things off that do not serve or better me, or that I cannot tangibly serve or better. Thinking about what is worth my focus and energy, and what actually matters. And learning how to accept and work _with_ the brain that I have, not against it, even if it isn't like most people's brains lol. Right now I can only do these things in small ways, but to me showing up for yourself in the ways that you are able to in the present, even if they're 'small', prepares you for when you need to do that in bigger ways. Showing up in whatever ways will aid in my survival and eventual healing, whatever that means at any given moment (sometimes it means doing more, sometimes it means taking a nap).

[@iamjadefox]

"work WITH the brain I have" this part right here. i'm a deep thinker and feeler and it doesn't help me to ignore or block that side of me as I move through life. I like this approach of using your innate process to help you create environments that encourage you to be your best self, rather than having to be on defense.

[@Lisa_Flowers]

​​@@iamjadefox for real! I'm also a deep thinker and feeler and after years of consistently moving through life as if I'm not, I'm tired, burnt out, traumatised and raggedy, and I wonder why lol? Some things in life we can't avoid, but I at least have made things more difficult for myself by just not acknowledging and respecting the way I am, and what my specific needs, limits and abilities are. I'm really trying to let go of the word 'supposed' or 'should' - it's often a way of trying to force things onto myself or my life that just do not fit. I don't care if I'm 'supposed' to be able to do X or Y in a specific way or specific time frame, or if I 'should' feel or exist in a particular way. This is the way I am. This is what I'm able to do, and how I'm able to do it. What am I gonna do now, knowing this?
