WHEN THE STORM HITS, AND YOU’RE STILL STANDING 🌧️

 Hi beautiful souls πŸ’›,

I hope life is treating you with the love and peace you so deeply deserve. I’ve missed being here, sharing, and writing — and I’m sorry for my silence. I haven’t posted in a while because, honestly, life has been overwhelming. I’ve been drowning in busyness, tangled in emotions, and caught in moments where the words just wouldn’t come.

But I’ve been writing... oh yes, I’ve written a lot — words I wasn’t ready to share yet. Now, I feel like it’s time. As the days come and go, I’ll be bringing those pieces here — one post at a time. πŸ“πŸ’«

Let me take you back to a week I won't forget: April 21st to 27th. A week where I felt like my world was shattering into a thousand invisible pieces. And yet, I had to smile. I had to show up. I had to act like nothing was wrong.

But inside? I was sinking. Deeper and deeper into a loophole of sadness. πŸ’”πŸ’­

People were calling — checking in, maybe — but I wasn’t ready to talk. Not because I didn’t care, but because I couldn’t. Yet they expected me to be fine. Expected me to laugh, chat, show up with joy. But friends, I wasn’t okay πŸ˜”. I was barely surviving, dragging myself out of bed every morning. Trying to hold it together when I was unraveling inside.

And what hurts most?

Feeling utterly alone while being surrounded by people I once called friends. 🀍

I realized something heartbreaking: some of the people I poured my energy into, who I supported through thick and thin, never really cared. Some weren’t friends — just visitors in my life. People who came when they needed something. People who never celebrated my wins. People who only remembered me when their own world was falling apart — calling once a month, expecting me to hold them, and then laughing when I needed someone. πŸ₯Ί

I stayed in love with the image I created of them. I held on to the expectations I painted — expectations that now haunt me.

But here’s what this week taught me:

🌿 I can survive alone.
🌿 I don’t need empty calls or hollow friendships.
🌿 I’d rather sit in silence than be drained by people who only take and never give.

So this is my goodbye to those one-sided friendships. πŸ‘‹ Enough is enough. I’m reclaiming my peace, my space, and my time.

And while I let go of those who never really saw me — I want to say thank you to the ones who do. πŸ’Œ

To the kind souls I’ve never met face-to-face but who support me more than those nearby — you are my pillar. Your encouragement, your kindness, your messages, and presence give me strength. You are my reminder that love doesn't always need a face; sometimes it just needs a heart that listens. 🫢

Thank you for being here. Thank you for loving me through the storms. I love you back — so deeply. πŸŒΌπŸ’–

Take care of yourself, always. You deserve soft days and peaceful nights.
Until next time,

With love,

Her

HEY LIFE, I’M BACK!

  Hi hi, beautiful people! πŸŒžπŸ’› I hope life is treating you like the kings and queens you are πŸ‘‘—because you truly deserve it! Gosh, I can’t believe how long it’s been since I last wrote or published a blog post 😩. But hey, let’s just say life has been pushing me to the edges and pulling me back again... and now? I think I’m finally back to some form of normality—or at least I believe I am 🀷🏽‍♀️. I’m not sure if this is going to be a story or just a little life update—but here goes. Lately, everything I tried felt like a failure πŸ’”. I was really down—almost to the point of falling into depression. But as someone who clings to faith and the power of prayer πŸ™πŸ½, I chose to pray instead... and honestly? That saved me. Here I am— not depressed, but stepping out of the darkness. 🌀️ Let me just say this out loud: I missed myself. πŸ’« And just when I needed it most, a friend recommended a book called "A Thousand Boy Kisses." πŸ“–πŸ’‹ And oh my goodness—it’s the real deal! I ...

Learning to Breathe Again at the Edge of the Year

 Hi beautiful people 🀍, I hope life is treating you kindly. 🌱 As for me—I’m here. Physically present, mentally drained. It’s Tuesday, yet Friday feels so far away. The only comfort is knowing this is the last week of work this year. And honestly… how did we even get here? One moment I was starting the year happy—eating ice cream in peace 🍦, feeling light and hopeful. Then came the turbulence. 2025, I wasn’t ready for you. I don’t think I’ll miss you much, but I will acknowledge you. You taught me lessons I never asked for. You took things I never imagined losing. And still, I thank God for the small mercies πŸ™—like ending this year single and whole. No new heartbreaks, no new wounds. The last relationship I was in ended back in 2024—two months in, on June 13. People say it was the worst decision of my life. Maybe they’re right. I sold myself short, and I’m still learning to forgive myself for that. Some days, the regret shows up uninvited, reminding me of choices I wish I had ma...

MY FITNESS JOURNEY: LEARNING TO LOVE THE UPS AND DOWNS

  Hi, beautiful people! I hope life has been treating you amazingly! On my side, life has been full of honey and chocolate—seriously, my life is so sweet these days. I don’t know what changed, but whatever it is, God has really been working and protecting me. It’s been such a long time since I last wrote, and honestly, I feel like I’m about to collapse—just kidding! I’m alive and well. The truth is, I’ve been super busy working in the field, and by the time I get home, I’m too tired to craft something for you. But here we are! So, let’s talk about something that’s been on my mind. Back in 2023, I had an average-sized body with a BMI of 24—not too high, not too low—and I was happy with my size. I loved going to the gym, and I was doing well. I remember squatting up to 80kg, and I was so proud of myself! Then, at the beginning of 2024, I got sick, and my weight dropped drastically. My BMI fell to 17, which I really didn’t like at first. But as time passed, I started to love m...
