WHY IT'S OKAY TO BE A "LOW-FA" (A Low-Functioning Adult) 🤣
My brother and his friend have the most hilarious terms they use with each other:
LOW-FA : Low Functioning Adult
MI-FA : Middle Functioning Adult
HIGH-FA : High Functioning Adult
They get together every few months, call themselves "LOW-FA"s, have a good laugh, and honestly tell each other about all that they have been going through... the good and the bad.
When my brother first told me about the term "LOW-FA", we looked at each other and started howling with laughter.
In that moment, we felt less alone in this big world...
We felt understood...
We got to laugh about all the things people try so hard to hide.
The truth of the matter is that we are ALL LOW-FAs... at least some of the time.
By embracing and owning the term "LOW-FA"... we free ourselves from the shame of not living up to impossible adult standards... and we can accept ourselves for the imperfect human beings we really are.
.
It's okay to be a LOW-FA...
It is okay to not be able to "do it all"...
It is okay to not be able to do much of anything at all...
It is by embracing LOW-FA, that can liberate ourselves from the shame of adulthood... and start living the life that we would love to live. <3
