Things to do when you want to give up

1. Take some time out to recuperate. You can’t keep going if you’re running on empty.

2. Take a step back to try and gain perspective – as sometimes we can’t see the woods for the trees.

3. Attempt to take stock of the current situation. Evaluate what you really want and need.

4. Try to re-evaluate your current strategy. What things are working and what things should you change?

5. Don’t be afraid to change direction if you need to. Sometimes that is the best thing – and it opens up new options.

6. Push through the dip - as we all lose momentum. But if you keep on going, you will get there in the end.

we need to embrace our emotions to see the light within us.

Sometimes we get so busy in our lives that we tend to forget to enjoy little things that put a smile on our faces. I live with my kittens, and they always put a little smile on my face whenever I see them playing or sleeping. I just tried to illustrate a simple, quiet moment with them. Also, you can notice that I drew the border with a lighter colour. I think I'll stick with this lighter colour as a border from now on.

Dear Diary,

Do you know, sometimes I let myself be trapped with my own overthinking? I don't do it on purpose, but the anxiety that forms a box around me keeps me isolated. I'm cooped up in my room, afraid of taking the first steps, I have no confidence to achieve my potential that blooms just within my reach,- because I'm unable to see them myself through these dark clouds of self-doubt.

Have you ever stopped to wonder what goes through a woman suffering from postpartum depression? It's safe to say not many people are even aware of this term. Which is why people are dumbfounded when a new mom acts with neglect towards her newborn, not to mention sometimes mothers can even be hostile, aggressive or suicidal.

Largely caused by hormonal changes, these uncharacteristic behavior is often responded with blame as people simply don't have the time or care to look for the source of the problem. Since it is easier to point fingers at the new mom, post-partum depression remains a taboo in 21st century.

Through art, this is my small effort to raise awareness and educate family members who are going to welcome a new mom...

Pause your life and step back from the constant pursuit of flawlessness. By allowing myself to be a bit disorganized, I've discovered a new sense of freedom, creativity, and mindfulness.

Love Your Own Light.

Life throws its fair share of storms, but sometimes, all we need is a moment of quiet amidst the downpour. Let the rain wash away your worries and find peace in the gentle rhythm of falling drops.

Rainy days were made for this. ️ Blankets, a good book, a cup of coffee and the world on mute. What's your favorite way to snuggle up?

Setting boundaries isn't selfish, it's self-respect. You deserve to protect your energy and time for what truly matters. Remember, "no" is a complete sentence.
