You're laughing at a family gathering or with a group of friends, and everything seems perfectly fine. But just an hour before, I heard the same person I was sharing a laugh with say something sharp and cruel about you when you werent near I've seen it, and it's a cold, hard slap to the face. The person whose smile is a performance, and whose words, when they think you aren't listening, are a completely different script. It's a confusing, frustrating experience that makes you question what's real and what's not, and it’s a pain that settles deep in your gut.People who live this way are masters of a dual reality. There's person they present—the one full of compliments and warmth. They're the first to offer a hug and the last to leave a conversation, all while projecting an image of unwavering loyalty. But later the warm words are replaced by cold gossip, and the compliments are traded for critiques. The very same person they were just praising becomes a subject of ridicule. It’s like watching a magic trick where the trick is to make you believe a lie.Why do they do it? Honestly, I don't care about the reasons anymore. Whether it’s insecurity or a desperate need to fit in, the result is the same: a fragile sense of trust that shatters the moment you realize the truth and the hardest part isn't just witnessing the behavior; it's the weight of knowing. You’re left in an uncomfortable silence, watching the performance unfold. Do you say something? Do you pretend you didn't hear? I've tried both, and both feel like a betrayal—either of them or of myself.It doesn't just hurt the person being talked about; it breaks your own heart. It makes you question every compliment you receive and every smile you're given. It teaches you that some people’s loyalty is a temporary convenience, not a lasting truth. It's a pain that stays with you, a quiet reminder that what you see isn't always what you get, and that some smiles hide a sharpness you never saw coming.
Why does it feel right every time I let you in?Why does it feel like I can tell you anything?All the secrets that keep me in chains andAll the damage that might make me dangerousYou got a dark side, guess you're not the only oneWhat if we both tried fighting what we're running from?We can't fix it if we never face itWhat if we find a way to escape it?
As i stand on the brink of turning 30, it's completely normal to feel a mix of emotions. Taking a moment to reflect on everything i've been through and all the growth i've experienced.I've already accomplished so much. I have navigated the highs and lows of love, experienced the ache of heartbreak, and, most importantly, learned how to find myself again. These aren't just memories; they are the building blocks of the strong, resilient person i am today.My 20s were a decade of discovery—a time for figuring things out, making mistakes, and celebrating successes. But my 30s? They are a time for owning who i am . It's not about having everything figured out; it's about being confident in the wisdom i have gained.So, let go of the idea that you need to "change" anything. Instead, celebrate how far you've come. The person who experienced that first love at 19, the heartbreak at 20, and the journey back to myself is a person with incredible strength. This isn't an ending; it's the beginning of a new chapter filled with all the confidence and clarity i've earned.Cheers to me and to the amazing journey ahead!Does anyone have felt same before about their birthdays ?
I'm so grateful for your constant support and thoughtful likes! It genuinely brightens my day to know you connect with what I share. What makes me even happier is the thought that these posts might reach many people, perhaps even those who need a push to find happiness during challenging times. It's a powerful reminder that support can come from anywhere, sometimes even more strongly from strangers than from our own family and friends." GOODNIGHT OR GOOD MORNING DEPENDS OF WHERE YOU ARE FROM
Good Morning ! ☕️Look at the sunrise. It's more than just light; it's a daily dose of hope, a profound statement that you are here, right now, and that everything will be fine. Feel that good feeling, that warmth spreading through you. It's easy to feel lost or isolated in the quiet of the pre-dawn, but as the colors paint the sky, remember you are part of a world waking up together – you are not alone.This moment, this beautiful beginning, is a gift. Let it fill you with happiness, even if it’s just for this perfect, present moment. Seize it.And as you do, perhaps there's someone who comes to mind, someone you once shared sunrises with, but life has led you down different paths. If I could reach out to them, I'd simply say: I hope you are doing well. And as this new day unfolds for all of us, wherever we are, I hope you enjoy your day.
Good Morning Remember, the hardships we face are not here to break us, but to forge us into stronger, more resilient versions of ourselves. Every scar tells a story of survival, a testament to an unyielding spirit. Even in the deepest storms, know that you are stronger than you think, and you are never truly alone. Though the path through darkness may feel isolating, with each step, you're building a bridge to brighter days. You will be okay."
