Not a fan of how i act when i like someone

a very blessed girl.

a very healed girl.

a very lucky girl.

all you can do is keep picking

yourself back up and trying again

[chaoticyetcalm]

it's going to be the last summer where i can be unemployed without any label (entering my last year of undergrad course)

[chaoticyetcalm]

lately feeling a lot down. i keep telling myself that it's all in my mind, whatever i think will happen, don't enter the negative loop of thoughts. but everything seems out of control. my thoughts, my life, the circumstances. feels like forcing myself to feel positive is doing no good, rather it's suffocating me. holding me to a place. rendering motionless. it's been so long since i have journaled. i want somebody to hear my thoughts but i don't want to tell anyone. i know life's been fair and generous to me in all aspects of my life. but it's suffocating me for the past few months.

Sometimes I randomly remember how the most important people of my life from like 6-7 years ago are not in my life at all anymore and that's sort of terrifying and also crazy to realize how you actually can survive loss beyond your comprehension and find happiness stronger and more suited for you if you keep going

[chaoticyetcalm]

life's when on a random saturday you start to feel it more and you start loving yourself more than ever before

everything is a win when the goal is to experience

last week i was peeling an orange in the kitchen and i didn’t mean for it to become anything.

a gentle reminder for myself (and maybe you)

This era is called: I’m not chasing closure. I’m moving forward with the understanding that some doors were meant to stay closed.
