I thought the green would fix it. Everyone says Hawaii is paradise, but no one talks about how loud the quiet can get when you’re alone with your thoughts. I took a photo of the cliffs, neon and impossible, but my phone screen felt like a lie. The color was real, but I was still anxious, still scrolling, still me. I wanted to post it, to prove I was living, but I couldn’t make the caption honest. Sometimes the most beautiful places just turn up the volume on what you’re carrying. The green was crazy. I was just tired. #Travel #TravelConfessions #NotJustParadise
