I’m a full believer in doing small things for yourself to cultivate your soul without having to tell anybody especially in a day and age where people feel the need to capitalize on every aspect of themselves to create an aestheticized identity… like learning a language going on a run writing a poem practicing your craft going to a museum dancing for fun can and should give you personal fulfillment that doesn’t have to be presented through a lens or validated by an audience

“Go and love someone exactly as they are. then, watch how they transform into the greatest truest version of themselves. when one feels seen and appreciated in their own essence, one is instantly empowered.”

I am a mere breath of air;

A formless thought that thinks of you.

Some people will talk behind your back. Others will mock you despite how pure and genuine your intentions are. You will be invalidated by many. A lot of them will doubt you, even your loved ones. They will debunk and misunderstand you. Even degrade you. And everything will be fucked up! But here's a thing, you have gotta build yourself in the dark. You have to heal those parts in private. Those parts from within that are being damaged by many people, including you. Then come back when it is finished. Show the world what you had built-in private. Remember, what a man does in private, will be rewarded in public. Keep the Faith!
