These days, I am trying to do it messy.
There’s always this lingering feeling when the 6th month of the year hits. It’s like trying to undo all of the things that happened just to get that energy back or for the rest of the year, I’d remain passive and just freeze, I guess.
Isn’t it so freeing to know that you haven’t met all of the people who will love you, you haven’t entered all of the rooms meant for you, and your life still has so much waiting to find you.
just because you’re not where you want to be yet doesn’t mean you haven’t come far
I often beat myself up about this but when I look back I realize I’m so much better than I was in 2022/23, and I don’t give myself enough credit for that
Froggy motivation for you all to be brave and take the big leap! There’s always a risk of things not working, but the possibility of growth and success is worth the risk!

the day is gonna end anyway and your warm bed will be waiting so you might as well do the hard things and not let them ruin your day
this is unironically how I push myself to do everything I dread
“what’s your five year plan” bro i wake up every day confused by the fact that i’m even alive
You never know how signing up for a new class, getting a haircut, attending a party you are too lazy to go to, or applying to a job you think you have no chance at can really shift timelines. You are probably one decision away from catapulting into a new timeline.
Romans 8:18 “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.”
In your 2025 new year post, this was the verse written in it and you said it is one of your faves. Before I get down the rabbit hole, lemme just get this out first—Happy birthday, tehhhh! 🥳🤍✨🌻🥹😘
Life really has its way of messing with us, physically, emotionally and mentally in ways we’re already broken and then life just crushes us but thank God, verses like these exist that we get to hold on to His promises.
Here comes the overdramatic girl, raining praises on you. I know life really has its ups and downs—but here we are—living for the hope of it all. That means your tenacity is overwhelming, you still get through life with grace even when we have to get out of the tunnel scathed, sobbing, and scarred but I do hope this isn’t just this. I hate calling us resilient but the thing is, we don’t have any other word for it and I hate it. I admire your empathy, how you deepen connections rather than just dipping toes in an icy cold river, you, however, deep dive, just plunging down with the right people. I admire how your mind works, I’m still awestruck by it, apparently. I love how you treat others around with kindness so soft, we get to see the real you. I love how you don’t give a f**k about what others say to you or let it get to you. Shame on them because they don’t know you’re the rarest jewel anyone can find in this lifetime and I’m glad our lives intertwined. We don’t get to live soft lives but I hope at the end of all these suffering, God will turn the tables around and we get to be the “baby girl”, ika nga. Praying for you, always. 🥹
I am ETERNALLY grateful for you and your friendship. And I still get Nathan, Chin, Chibebe, and of course, ta Remy as a bonus. Thank you for letting me in on your already full fortress. I know things might be wobbly right now but I am pretty sure these things will turn to worthy at the right time. May God grant all the desires of your heart in alignment to his will and ways. I love you, tehhh. Mwuah. But reminder, we don’t need to be perfect to be worthy of love, generally, and His love✨🫀 Uwi ka na. 😅
You are very easy to love.
Gripping my table with my pens, my books, Bible, and notebooks in it and telling myself, God will get you through it and will walk with you through the other side of the tunnel. Repeating I am not afraid to walk this world because God is with me, I am not alone. I am not afraid to live.
Heyyyy, I’m plugging in my poem here because it’s also considered a love letter to myself.
controversial opinion but unfortunately you are your actions and what you say. if you are mean to people, it doesn’t matter if you sometimes have secret kind thoughts. fortunately you are your actions and what you say. if you are kind in your actions and your words, it doesn’t matter if you sometimes have mean thoughts. the power is in working against inner negative thoughts and being a better person despite it. you have the ability to cultivate the person you want to be.
"we are who we pretend to be, so we must be careful who we pretend to be"
Wow I never heard this quote before, I like it
and if you love, love their darkness too, not just their light.
Heavy on this
Not sure who needs to hear this, but... you are doing so much better than your inner critic admits.
