Looking back in 2020: A Year of Challenges and Gratitude
As the year 2020 ends, we may find ourselves looking back to all the events that have happened around us. Many of us wait for better days to come, for grander years to embrace. We endure only on the premise that we have to keep looking and moving forward until those better days are at our doorstep. Good and bad things have happened. Even though for some, a lot of unfortunate were shown, it’s still what made us who we are in the end. You would probably agree when I say that 2020 has become a sh*tstorm full of disappointments, bad news, and an unending wave of problems that came…
Finding Yourself: An Essential Journey To Self-Discovery
I am so delighted to share with you this long-awaited collaboration with one of my favorite bloggers, Ashley of Beautiful Disaster Lit blog. Ashley is one of the most authentic and badass bloggers I truthfully admire, and who writes strongly about what she believes in. Do check out her blog here! Smoking to some local strain, and listening to Lauv’s I Like Me Better this night, I am writing about Finding Yourself. To tell you honestly, I got nothing at first. Then one day, during this one meditation period, I kind of surprisingly asked myself “What is my purpose?” Believe it or not, this one question got me typing this…
7 Misconceptions About Happiness
Hi guys! Welcome back to my baby blog! It has been sooo many weeks and the clingy inner child in me misses the WordPress community. I’m glad I can finally get back to writing. 🙂 Anyway, this week we’re going to talk about happiness. A word that everyone seems to be talking about these days including me. Undeniably, this word has covered a lot of meaning throughout time. Since the ancient Greeks, happiness is attempted to be described, taping it with the word eudaimonia which means “to live well”, as if it was a beauty one can dare to attain. In an article I’ve read, modern science looks at happiness…
Reaching out: How to Ask For Help?
Hi everyone! I’m very psyched to share with you this collaboration post from me and Khizer of ReasonsToLiveFor. He writes and makes meaningful posts to help others too, and I’m very excited because this is our first-ever collaboration, and hopefully many more to come! Moving on, this is a very sensitive topic about asking for help. We hope that you read this throughout, especially if you are one of those who find it hard to reach out to other people. We get that we all need some support in everything that we do; support from our family, our friends, and our loved ones. But sometimes, even if we want to,…
Why Letting Go of Toxic People Isn’t The Best Way To Live a Happy Life
Hey there! This is another unpopular opinion that might strike up some arguments here and there but I just want to say, hear me out. I have been hearing and seeing a lot of things around the topic of self-care, finding happiness, or ways to live a happy life. There are just so many ways you can improve your own, without having to make an effort too much, and it has become as easy as ignoring those people who can’t benefit you or your happiness. Why is that? Maybe we’re just too afraid to get in touch with that negative energy that surrounds those difficult people that we decide not…
