It's Ok To be Happy Wristband: Medium

Hand-selected to be a part of our Spring 2023 collection. Story 2022 has been a very strange year for me. It’s been one of the worst years of my life but hidden in between the darkness have been splotches of light. I’ve made new, wonderful friends. I’ve moved into an apartment that is home through and through. I’ve discovered hobbies I never knew I’d love and reignited old passions that I haven’t had time for. In the midst of the difficult days, I felt really guilty for being happy. For spending time with friends on a night out when I could be inside, crying and mourning. It’s hard to let yourself be happy when you feel like you should still be in a pit of despair. Although, you should never feel guilty for finding joy.
