Prompt:
When it comes to my friend group, an action I take to increase my sense of belonging is to take the initiative of planning things to spend time together. My primary friend group consists of my friends that I had since childhood but as you can imagine with time and as you grow up things sometimes get harder to spend quality time with each as much as we did when we were younger because we have more responsibilities and expectations. Espically for myself with school, working full time trying to manage supervision it alot but one thing I like to make sure I do is prioritize self care and one important form of self care that always helps me is spending time with loved ones because they always give me a sense of peace. They allow me to disconnect for a bit and just laugh and enjoy good company and if in the event I need to vent they allow me that space as well. Therefore in a sense I also like to reciprocate that as well since I know that some of that stress I experience sometimes they experience as well. So when I get the chance I like to plan things in ahead like movies nights, dinners or even theme parties like my traditional christmas/pajamas party which we also do vision boards.
