Soulful Smiles

Image
    Do I really feel happy? Honestly, I'm not sure how or what to say in response to the question, "What makes me happy?" So maybe just let me tell you a tale. It's April of 2024, almost a year since the last time I published something out of here.         Three years ago, I was a really happy and upbeat person who was driven to make the most of everything in my environment. I recall that I used to frequently do podcasts in order to ask strangers for a favor—that is, to please smile for me. Although it seems unusual that a complete stranger would ask you that, but as they smile for my favor, it makes me happy. And the moment they asked me why, I always answered, "Because you deserve to be truly happy." Even though happiness and smiling may not go hand in hand, we were able to find calm through smiling for even a brief moment in our lives. Even for brief moments, we are usually happy when we laugh or smile.       Performing tha...

      Sometimes I just wish I could read your mind to find out how you really feel about me.       It's me, again. What are you doing? Though lately, things have been difficult, they will ultimately pass.       May 17, 2023, 7:51 p.m. I'm writing this post from my feelings and thoughts.      I said at the beginning of this post that I wished I could just read your thoughts to see how you truly feel about me because I wanted to know whether that emotion was so fleeting that it would be simple for you to sever our relationship. From that, let me leave you a question.       Do I genuinely accept and adore myself as I am? Or am I simply pretending to be fine at everything because I'm surrounded by people?      I'll tell you a tale. I kept viewing movies about tarot cards on my social media accounts last December 2022, and eventually, I developed a curiosity for the subject. Despite ...

Vita Nostra Sugit (Our Life Sucks)

Image
     April 2023 will conclude in less than two weeks.      How are you doing? I'm not sure what you're going through right now, but I'm hoping that life will be kinder to you.      You might be wondering why our title is different right now. Let me begin by telling you a story. We have been learning several Latin concepts at school for the past few months that are related to the church and the life of Jesus Christ. Vita means "life," Nostra means "our," and Sugit means "sucks." But how did I end up penning an article about "Vita Nostra Sugit"?       For the past month, a buddy of mine has simply vanished. There is no message, no update, no reason, nothing, and the phone is not available. I have no further connection with this individual other than through that account, yet no matter what I do, the phone or account never rings again as it used to.      And, to be honest, I can't stop thinking about what happe...

Silhouette of Life

Image
      How have you been? Life has been so difficult recently, but I hope you are safe and well this year. First and foremost, I hope your year doesn't start miserable as I am.          It is 12th of March 2023.         Actually, I've been working on this piece for almost a year. That took so long because I was considering my thoughts, if that's the correct phrase. Yet, couple hours ago I simply understood that I'm genuinely not considering. But I'm truly waiting for inspiration or motivation to continue writing this post.     Life continues to send things into our life that we do not want to be a part of or face. It's always a major question for me as to why I'm here. Is it my destiny to suffer? or was I born to dwell in misery? or maybe life isn't as bad as it appears to me, but I'm the one who makes it so?      These are the questions that keep me empty as a human. I simply feel like I'...

Why Do I Exist?

Image
                   Hi, how are you today? I don't know what you're going through right now, but I hope it's not the same as what I'm going through.     You have undoubtedly heard the adage "life is a roller coaster ride." We have experienced both being at the top and being really glad in everything, as well as being at the bottom and miserable in anything.      But allow me to ask: Have you ever questioned why we must go through that? Why can't we just always be happy?     Why is it so easy to kill your happiness but why is it so hard to kill your sadness?      To be really honest, my thoughts are currently murdering, ruining, and kicking me. To hold myself feels like I'm dying inside. My opinions need to be heard, and I want to yell. You're probably wondering right now who the hell I am to write articles about motivation while I'm actually incredibly demotivated. I'm even doubting w...

Poser of Myself

     How are you doing today? I have no clue what you are going through right now, but I am certain that you will be able to overcome it and that everything occurs for a purpose. It may be difficult to realize that in order to be genuinely happy, we must face hardships in our lives. However, please keep your heads up and continue to live and pursue the life you actually deserve.      Before I go any farther, may I ask you a question?      Have you ever tried to conceal your true self in order to fit in with something or someone? or have you simply desired to be someone other than yourself?      We can't deny that we have a tendency to think about those stuff from time to time. Because we have stuff that other people don't, we have a tendency to have "what ifs" in our lives. The majority of the time, it is about our physical and social position. Would other people treat me differently or nicer if I had a more financially stable ...

Is there life after death?

I was once lost

Image
      How are you doing today? I hope everything in your life is going well for you.      May I inquire as to whether you have ever felt lost in your life? even a single time? How did you handle it? And how would you behave if you were to encounter the same situation again in the future? Are you going to repeat your previous actions? Finally, if you're going to make any modifications, what will they be? What is the reason behind this?      Yes, I've been in a position like that before in my life. I'm not sure why I'm still alive or why I'm doing these things at the present. I'll confess that this pandemic is difficult for all of us, and we have a tendency to overthink what's going on in our lives. I've even reached a stage in my life where I'm asking myself, "Why?" Why are you living in this manner? I'll admit that I'm not really happy; I may be laughing out loud, but I was dying on the inside.      "I don't want to live li...

Glad You Exist

     Hello, whomever is reading this right now. I'm not sure where to begin, but I'm grateful that you're still here, taking the time to read this.      How are things going for you? I hope you're doing well at the moment. So, before we get started, may I ask you for a favor? Please put a smile on your lovely face for me. please?     Thank you, thank you for doing that, thank you for smiling because I'm sure you look more lovely in it.      May I ask you something, have you ever tried to trust no one before including yourself? Let me leave that question there.      I just wanted to express my gratitude for everything. It may sound unusual that someone you don't know personally is telling you this right now, but I am honest. Thank you very much for everything. You may not understand why I'm thanking you, but thank you for unknowingly putting a grin on my face and for constantly leaving a nice aura on us. I constantly a...

Worthless

                        Hello, how are you? How are you doing? I hope you're still doing well after such a long time. I've been thinking about this one question for the past few months. Why did we always feel insecure and worthless?          There are times in my life when I feel uncertain about myself, perhaps because of the people I'm around with. They don't always critique me or make me feel this way, but as a person, you can't deny that you sometimes wish you were someone else because they are better than you; better than your personality, intelligence, or physically.        I'll admit that I'm the type of girl who feels insecure about herself because she believes she isn't pretty enough or doesn't fit the ideal of beauty in this culture. For all of these reasons, I've already accepted the truth that I'll never be a better person for others.         ...

You are the Expensive One✨

       Hello, it's been a long time. I apologize for not being active the last few days; I've been preparing for this upload for quite some time. How are you doing, by the way? What are your current thoughts? Are you all right? What have you been up to these past few days? Did you have a good time last week and this week? Are you happy with what you've accomplished?      I have a question for you: what comes to your mind first when you hear the word happiness? What does happiness mean to you?      This is where my understanding is incorrect; for me, happiness means someone smiling and laughing, but what I've discovered is that being happy in life is not as simple as that. Happiness, according to dictionary definitions, is a feeling of pleasure and positivity. A person is said to be "happy" when they feel good, proud, excited, relieved, or satisfied about something.      We all know what happiness is, but the big q...

Living to Regret

       Hello, it's been a while. How are you doing these days? Is everything okay with you? What have you been up to recently? Have you had a lot of thoughts running through your head in the last few days? Don't worry, you're not alone; I'm in the same boat as you.      Do you feel demotivated lately? Because of the things you've done in the past that you've come to regret.      I'm sure you're aware that you're not alone, that everyone has regrets in life.      There are two types of regrets in my case: minor and major. Tiny regrets is the name I gave it because it's the things I regret that aren't really big deals. The best example of this minor regret is when I forget to study for an upcoming exam and am then disappointed with the result. Isn't this a minor issue? But, yeah, I'm still kicking myself for not reviewing those times. The monster regrets were up next. Monster regrets is the name I gave it because I f...

Changes in Life

     You there! How are you doing today? Yes, you, the reader. Have you ever had to deal with life changes? It could be a physical, or emotional shift in your life? What is your attitude toward change and how do you deal with it? Have you given that change any consideration? Have you ever thought about why something happened to you in particular?      There have been many times in my life when I have been completely unaware of the changes taking place around me. It's possible that I'm the person who everyone thought, "Oh, it'll be fine for her." "I'm confident she'll get it." "I'm confident she'll say yes.” I'll never deny that at some point in my life, I became the type of person who couldn't say "no" when someone asked for a favour. The type of person who tries to understand and accept everything, even if she doesn't like it or she's hurting because of it, all you could hear about her was "Go! I...

Anonymous Person- Request for You

      Hello! Yes, you. I was talking to you. How are you doing? Are you doing fine? What are your thoughts? Have you been feeling sad and depressed lately? Whatever you're feeling right now, I'd like to ask you a favour: could you please smile for me? Yes, please smile. Please smile because you truly deserve to be happy. I can't tell you how many times in my life I've felt sad and alone. I've always felt like no one was on my side, that no one would believe in me that no one would trust or love me. It's difficult for me to think that way because my mind keeps thinking that even when I'm just sitting and doing nothing "You are worthless because you are stupid. You are undeserving of anything." One night, I was sitting in my dark room, scrolling through my social media accounts, when I came across a short video with the caption "Dear, Self." Out of curiosity, I began watching it, and the first line really struck me hard. It’s very fir...
