You have to remind yourself that what has already happened cannot be changed; moving forward is all you can do and prevent reoccurrence of unfavorable situations. Some fear the unknown because you do not know what will happen, but once you gain knowledge of something, you have to move forward to do better with that knowledge.

...there is no forever...

I want to talk about taking care of the things we love ❤️. Whether it's a cherished object, a special place 🏞️, or a relationship with another person, showing that we care can make it last. Sometimes we think we have forever, but "forever" can be shorter than we expect. The truth is that there is no forever and sometimes we fail to realize the value we have until we no longer have it. All you are left with is an empty space where once there was laughter, joy and memories. Let's appreciate what we have and put in the effort to nurture it, before it fades away. What are some things you cherish and how do you take care of them?

Update: I freaking got a Labubu and she's living her best life! ❤️

Great food with great people is all I can wish for. Life is about sharing good and bad times and that is exactly what we do when we hang out. I couldn't ask for more from life. 🫶❤️

My best friend tells me I have bad taste in men... when I saw Jujutsu Kaisen I knew she was right. I have this mega crush on Sukuna 🤕 you would have to be lying if you say you don't think he's fine as hell.

Guard wisely the company you keep and the fruits of your labor. Though you walk with sincerity, beware, for some may hide malice in their hearts, wishing to see your rise stunted. There are those who, discontent with their own path, will seek to dim your light. They desire to see you stumble, for they have chosen the fleeting pleasures of the world, while you toil in quiet humility for something lasting. Keep your joys and struggles close, for not all will see with the same eyes, nor understand the weight of your efforts. Remain humble, stay resolute, and thirst for growth, for those who truly rejoice in your success will walk beside you in effort, not in shadow. Their joy will not come from envy, but from the shared toil that binds you together. Birds of a feather should flock together as others who lack what you have will want what you have out of envy.

What it Means to be There

If a friend, or one whom you cherish, is burdened by anxiety and their soul is troubled, unable to rest or find nourishment, it is your duty to offer your ear and your heart. Approach them with patience, listen, and provide the support their spirit seeks.

If they speak of your actions as the cause of their unrest, it is wise to offer clarity, to explain with honesty, and to untangle any confusion that may cloud their understanding.

Deceit has no place in the heart of one who values another. Should you weave falsehoods, once revealed, the trust between you will wither. Your bond will be strained, and their heart will be guarded, for the seed of doubt once planted is hard to uproot.

Do not think to shield them by hiding truths for the sake of your own image. In doing so, you only deepen the chasm between you. Truth, though hard, strengthens the soul; lies, though soft, weaken it over time. Thus, if you truly wish to soothe the troubled spirit of a friend, let your actions be guided by truth and honesty, for only in this way can you provide the peace they seek.

To be of meaning to another is to nurture the bond that exists, to continue it with care, and to strengthen it through wisdom and sincerity.

The Quest for the Labubu: A Tale of Maple Buns and Broken Dreams

Today, I set off on a solo adventure to get a Labubu. I arrived to find the line stretching up the wazoo, but hey, I’d come this far, so I decided to wait it out. Thirty-five minutes later, a security guard informed us the Labubus were sold out and didn’t know when they’d restock.

Undeterred, I went inside to check out what else was available. Another 15 minutes pass, and nope, no restock. So, I treated myself to a maple bun and brown sugar boba with oatmilk to soothe my Labubu-less soul. Oh well, there’s always next time!

Social media should be a space for positivity, growth, and connection—not a place to air personal struggles. While everyone faces challenges, not everyone will fully understand or relate to yours. What we post online shapes how others perceive us, particularly those who know us personally. Even though we might feel like our posts reveal who we truly are, the reality is that no one can fully understand us unless they’re there for every moment. Our inner world, with all its thoughts and feelings, often remains hidden. We all crave connection and acceptance, whether we express it or not, but it's important to pause and think before sharing. What we put out into the world can easily be misinterpreted, and once those words are out there, they can't be undone. The world we present should reflect the best version of ourselves.

This isn’t to say you shouldn’t express yourself or seek help—those are important, and you deserve support. But social media may not be the best place for it. Instead, use it to share your passions, celebrate memorable moments, and connect with friends. If you need to talk through struggles, there are private ways to do so. Publicly airing personal issues can lead to misperceptions, with others possibly seeing you as mentally unwell, untrustworthy, or someone who can’t keep a confidence. Turn to someone you truly trust—someone who wants the best for you, who listens without judgment, and who offers tough love for your growth. Seek out people who challenge you, offer new perspectives, and stand by you, even when they’re going through their own challenges. It’s in these authentic connections that real healing and growth happen; not social media.
