We Forgot How to Love

-

We live in a world that moves too fast. Everyone’s busy proving something, running toward something, or running away from something. Somewhere along the way, we forgot how to love.


Not just romantic love, but love for others, love for ourselves, love for stillness, love for the small, quiet things that keep us human.


I’m realizing that a lot of healing starts when we stop trying to win and just start trying to care again. About people. About moments. About life.


Loving isn’t weakness. It's what holds us together.


We all need to take a step back and learn how to love again.

Trying the Best I Can

-
I’m 30 years old. Sometimes I feel like a failure. Growing up isn’t as fun as I thought it would be. It’s not the adventure I imagined when I was a kid. It’s heavier, more complicated, more lonely sometimes. But I keep going. I love my parents so much. They’ve done everything for me. They are truly amazing, and I don’t say that enough. I wouldn’t be who I am without them. I love cooking. I love traveling. Those are the moments that remind me life is still beautiful. I think about my mistakes a lot... where I’ve been, what I’ve done wrong, who I’ve hurt, or let down. I replay things in my head all the time. Not because I hate myself, but because I want to do better. I want to grow. I want to be proud of who I become. I’m trying the best I can. That’s all I can do right now. And for today, I think that’s enough. If you feel the same way, you are not alone. Come back and see me again.

Today Is a Good Day

-
The sun’s out. The air feels lighter. And for the first time in a while, I’m letting myself just breathe. There’s so much shit happening in the world right now. War, hate, lies, greed. Everyone’s yelling over each other, nobody’s really listening. We scroll and scroll and scroll through outrage like it's fuel. And honestly? I’m tired. I’m tired of negative people. Tired of drama. Tired of the bad energy. We need more peace. More love. More real human connection. COVID didn’t just isolate us physically, it screwed with our ability to talk, to care, to slow down. Somewhere in the chaos, we forgot how to just be kind. How to sit in silence with someone and feel okay. How to not be afraid of being vulnerable or honest. So today, I’m choosing a better vibe. No more feeding the noise. I'm putting good out there, even if it’s small. Even if it’s just a smile or holding the door or saying, “Hey, I’m glad you’re here.” Because today is a good day and I want more of those.
