Lifestyle: Another Year Older, Another Month Ahead

I realised recently that I haven’t written here in a while. I'll start with wishing you all a happy new month, and I hope this month, or should I say this year, is kind to us all.

I have not really been active via this platform, not because I had nothing to say, but maybe because life has been loud, heavy, and full in ways that don’t always translate easily into words. And maybe because, like many of us, I’ve been learning how to carry the weight of the world while still trying to show up gently for myself.

Wednesday Motivation- Stop Apologizing For Your Emotions.

Sometimes it’s hard to admit what you’re feeling. You feel like you shouldn’t be upset when you are, or you get really super excited over the little things in life that make you smile. And no one seems to understand why you feel the way you do, but like I always advise people, do not apologise for feeling the way you do.

Always say what you mean and mean what you say. Express how you feel, and don't ever apologize for being real. I always say in life you will realize that people will love the idea of you but will lack the maturity to handle the reality of you. No matter how hard you try, you can never please everyone.

Follow your heart, make the most of every day, and be proud of who you are. Every day I learn new things in life. I am so grateful to the universe for taking me through different difficult paths in life. I have had to learn the act of "forgiveness" and sending out good vibes and energies. I have learnt to never feel the need to put my emotions aside to please anyone, and even though it does backfire, as you will come across people in this life who never like to hear the truth, still never apologize for your emotions. Remember you are magic; people will hate you, rate you, shake you and break you. But how strong you stand is what makes you.

New Year, New Beginnings: Prioritizing You This Year

 Happy New Year, my beautiful readers! 🎉

As the clock struck midnight, ushering in a new year, I found myself reflecting on the whirlwind of emotions, lessons, and sacrifices that defined the past year. For so long, I’ve poured so much of myself into others, sometimes at the expense of my own dreams. But this year feels different. This year, I’m choosing me.

A Vintage Pause: Nostalgia, Stillness, and the Beauty of Remembering

There are moments before we step out into the world when time feels suspended.

I took this photograph in one of those quiet pauses, wrapped in nostalgia, drawn to textures, shadows, and the familiar comfort of something timeless. Pearls, gloves, soft light… details that whisper rather than speak loudly.

Lately, I’ve been feeling pulled toward the past, not out of longing, but out of appreciation.
