🎧 MONDAY MIXTAPE, Vol. 10
The Reunion Episode
Some playlists are for moving on.
This one is for coming back.
Not to who you were.
To who you still are, to each other.
There are friendships built in the fire that don’t expire.
They just go on hiatus.
This week’s mixtape is for the ones who picked up exactly where they left off.
The ones who needed time.
The ones who did the work.
The ones who found their way back to the couch.
You know who you are.
Press play. You already know this one.

Another mixtape banger! Thanks for this, it makes Mondays more bearable.
I didn't get a notification this morning when your post published. So, I found myself missing a playlist today. Then I was relieved when I saw it in my notes this evening. Thank you for making these mix tapes!
