Hi!! I AM BACK. I shot a video and album art in Jordan, got arrested for witchcraft and devil worshipping there, wrote a bunch of new music for my upcoming album in London, my sister got happily married, and I enjoyed being a beach bum for 10 days in Sicily. Those were the good bits and this is a confession. This is my first post in almost a month and the anxiety and duress I have been feeling over my #InstagramFast is a bit hilarious but equally dumbing and horrifying. Working on a single post sometimes takes 2-3 hours out of my day, from choosing which photo to post to coming up with a good caption, to making sure it stays true to my mood and story, to adding all the relevant tags and timing it perfectly. ALL of this drains me, especially when I am ‘away’. I absolutely fucking love sharing my work but the pressure and fear of not doing so feels very real, of course it largely comes from within me, my own bulldozer brain telling me to make contact for fear of ghosting my followers, very much feels like I’m losing my grip over reality, my grip on priorities. And yet, I just can’t stay away. What matters most to me is being creative, with my music and my art, and Instagram has certainly allowed me to hone my skills, and even further, be vulnerable and expressive with my voice, even shameless and care-free, but spending so much time obsessing over a photo or caption or just the fear of not even having one trashes my priorities a bit. The pure thrill which comes with staring at beauty without taking a photo of it is riveting and one which social media cannot compete with. Well, I don’t have much more or anything moving to say right now, I will be mulling this over and would love to hear if you fancy a similar suspicion. p.s. I spent 2 hours on this post but it totally feels worth it.

Awakening is not a thing. It is not a goal, not a concept. It is not something to be attained. It is a metamorphosis. If the caterpillar thinks about the butterfly it is to become, saying ‘And then I shall have wings and antennae,’ there will never be a butterfly. The caterpillar must accept its own disappearance in its transformation. When the marvelous butterfly takes wing, nothing of the caterpillar remains. ~ Alejandro Jodorowsky 🐆 I WELCOME THIS YEAR!!! #vandanamusic #vandamner #antivenus #noxanima #vandanajain
