You tell yourself, tomorrow will be different. You mean it, too. You’ve thought it through. Mapped it out in your head. The things you need to do. The things you want to do. You can see yourself doing them. You know exactly how it should go. But then tomorrow comes, and somehow—without you even noticing—you’re …
There are moments when the weight of everything feels unbearable. When every fiber of your being screams to stop, to sit it out, to let someone else handle it. When fear, exhaustion, or doubt whispers in your ear, “Why bother?” But then, something inside you whispers back, “Do it anyway.” Not because it’s easy, not …
Have you ever found yourself locked in a battle within your own mind? A thought or habit you desperately want to escape, yet it clings to you, demanding attention, overpowering your willpower. It feels like a cycle you can’t break. You know what’s right. You want to choose better. But your mind seems to have …
This year isn’t about doing more or fixing everything. It’s about becoming. Becoming isn’t something you can rush. Think of a seed quietly growing into a tree, or a river slowly shaping its path.

Sometimes, the sharpest pain we feel is the one we unknowingly inflict. Imagine this: bleeding on someone who once hurt you, but in the same moment, stabbing them back, causing them to bleed too.
