i've been seriously learning israeli sign for, like, 2.5 months now, and honestly, i'm very pleased with my progress. i don't remember ever having learned a language this fast 😳
anyway being able to communicate face to face again (at least with a few select people) feels refreshing and extremely useful, but i still don't feel like i have anything worth contributing to the world. i still feel as though it's better if i just...... shut the heck up?
