i can never get enough of how sharp all your observations are like "It’s nice to feel a sense of belonging, even if it is at the cost of my individuality complex." i love the phrasing. and i felt "I want to be able to put into words how hard it is to feel proud of where you’re from, despite having always had one foot out of the door." so much + honestly i think it wasn't just me feeling it but also my parents feeling it like that was a generational sentence ygwim? + the ending was so beautiful and kinda felt like the ending of a series of breathing exercises (specifically when they work)
