May Letter — We Were Only Ever Visitors Here
May’s letter lingers on a quieter realization: that not everything we love is meant to stay.
This month’s reflection explores impermanence — the fleeting nature of people, moments, and even the versions of ourselves we once thought would remain forever. It sits with the ache of change and the quiet understanding that life is constantly asking us to release, to move forward, and to make peace with what cannot be kept.
The letter moves through the human tendency to hold on a little longer than we should. To revisit memories, to preserve feelings, and to search for permanence in things that were only ever temporary. It reflects on the difficulty of letting go, not because we are incapable of moving on, but because something once meant enough for us to want to keep it.
At its core, May’s Uncomfy Letter is about learning to exist alongside change without hardening because of it. It is a gentle reminder that some things are meant to pass through us — to teach us, shape us, and transform us before continuing on their own path. Not everything lasts, but that does not make it any less meaningful.
