    It’s funny how procrastination feels like such a small, harmless thing when we’re younger, just a few hours of scrolling, a few deadlines stretched, a few “I’ll do it tomorrow” promises whispered into the quiet of the night. But somewhere along the way, “tomorrow” starts to feel heavier. Not just as a word, but as…

    If I had to be completely honest, the hardest personal goal I’ve ever set for myself has been learning to truly understand and accept who I am, not the version I post online, not the version that fits everyone’s expectations, but the real me. It sounds so simple when you say it out loud, but…

    If I could sit down with my younger self and whisper one lesson into their ears, it would be this: your life is yours to live, not a stage for others to direct. For the longest time, I thought I had to bend, mold, and sometimes even break myself to fit into other people’s expectations,…

    If I really sit with myself and think about it, what personality traits feel like red flags to me, it always comes down to how a person makes me feel about myself when I’m around them. Some people lift you up, while others slowly chip away at your peace. I can’t stand that controlling energy.…

    When someone asks me how I relax, I never have one single answer, it’s more like a mosaic of little rituals that keep me grounded. For me, relaxation isn’t about switching my brain off, it’s about giving it gentleness, space, and softness in a world that’s always demanding speed. Writing is my first refuge. Putting…

    My ideal home isn’t about how big the rooms are or how expensive the furniture looks. It’s about the feeling it gives me the moment I step inside. For me, an ideal home is a place where I don’t have to pretend to be anyone I’m not. A space where masks and performances fall away,…

    In an alternate universe, I think I’m living somewhere near the mountains, not the kind of mountains people hike just for Instagram stories, but the kind that feel like they have souls. I wake up to the sound of birds and the scent of wet soil, not alarm clocks and deadlines. There’s no constant rush,…

    Honestly, everything.But not in the academic way we’re taught to be curious in school. Not in the “read a chapter and give an answer” kind of way.I’m curious about life, the messy, confusing, beautiful, heartbreaking experience of just being human. I often find myself staring at the ceiling at 2 AM, wondering: Why is my…

    If someone couldn’t see me and asked me to describe myself, I think I’d pause, not because I wouldn’t know what to say, but because it’s hard to wrap a whole human into neat little words. Still, I’d try. I’d say, “I’m someone who feels deeply, even when I don’t show it. I live in…

    Honestly, if I could change something about modern society, I wouldn’t just point fingers at governments or technology or “the youth these days.” I’d start with how deeply disconnected we’ve become, from ourselves, from each other, and from what actually matters. We live in a world that’s more connected than ever, and yet so many…
