What is good for you to do when you feel bad?

Look at my wonderful artemis necklace.ArtemisIn Greek mythology, Artemis is the twin sister of Apollo, daughter of Zeus and Leto. She is the virgin goddess of the hunt, wilderness, and wildlife, as well as a protector of young people and a helper in childbirth. She is also associated with the Moon and often depicted with a bow and arrows.⸻Connection between Artemis and the Bee1.Fertility and Life – Bees, as producers of honey and pollinators, symbolize nourishment and the cycle of life. In certain cults, such as the Ephesian Artemis, this connected to her role as a fertility and nature goddess.2.“Melissa” Priestesses – Priestesses serving Artemis were called Melissa (Greek for “bee”), symbolizing purity and devotion.3.Great Mother Tradition – Artemis inherited symbols from earlier Anatolian mother-goddess worship, where the bee represented creation and nurturing power.4.Order and Cooperation – Like bees, Artemis’s priestesses were seen as a harmonious community working in service to the divine.

Sometimes, we create our own obstacles. We drown ourselves — the water that pulls us under is us, and even the hands holding us down are our own.

Ephesus is one of the most impressive ancient cities in Turkey, located near Izmir. Once a major Roman city, it was home to the Temple of Artemis—one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. You can still see the stunning Celsus Library and the huge theater that held 25,000 people. Walking through Ephesus feels like stepping back in time.

Being constantly available means surrendering your boundaries to the expectations of others.When you’re always ready and reachable, what is valuable starts to feel ordinary — and you begin to lose touch with yourself.Sometimes, it’s necessary to pull back, to go quiet, to become unseen — because true connection survives even in silence and distance.When you make yourself accessible to everyone, your inner voice is the first to fade.And just before you’re lost in that silence, you remember: You don’t have to answer every call. You’re not meant to be everywhere, all the time.

A ladybug on my fingertip…It paused for a moment by the endless sea and chose to land on me.In Turkish culture, the ladybug lives up to its name—bringing luck, love, and good news.They say you should make a wish, for its arrival carries a hidden kind of magic.In some cultures, it’s seen as a small messenger of God; in others, a symbol of motherhood and abundance.Wherever it’s found, a ladybug is a gentle reminder:The most precious things in life are often the smallest.

The goddess of the Artemision, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World: Artemis of Ephesus. A timeless symbol of fertility, protection, and the power of women.

The Awakening of the Black Swan: How Did Nina Go Mad?A body in white feathers, seeking perfection.And within that body, a mind slowly cracking, quietly bleeding.Nina didn’t simply go mad—she unraveled.Piece by piece, within a sacred temple of artistry, in a prison invisibly built under the name of perfection.Because Nina’s mind carried more than just the role she was playing.It bore her mother’s expectations, her repressed desires, her silenced rage, and the mute screams of her childhood.Eventually, it became unbearable.⸻The White Swan demanded discipline. Control. Innocence.But on the other side of the stage, hidden in the shadows, waited the Black Swan:Chaotic. Seductive. Boundless.Nina had to become the Black Swan—not only for the role,but to survive.Because everything we repress—every urge, every cry—returns in disguise.For Nina, it returned as hallucinations:Through the tearing of her own skin, the fracturing of her reflection in mirrors,and the projection of her shadow-self onto Lily.⸻When the mind can no longer protect reality, it begins to reshape it.For Nina, reality was no longer about being herself, but about being perfect.And in that pursuit, her identity fractured, her perception blurred, and her inner world overpowered the outer one.She was no longer merely dancing—She was destroying herself to be reborn through art.⸻Nina didn’t go mad.She reached the edge of psychic endurance,where an artist touches the most sacred wound:the thin line between reality and illusion, identity and shadow, desire and prohibition.And when that line finally broke, Nina was free—Even if the cost was the collapse of her self.“I was perfect,” she said at the end.Because sometimes, madness isn’t just falling apart—It’s becoming fully yourself by breaking through everything that isn’t.

🎶 “We could have had it all, rolling in the deep…”Adele’s Rolling in the Deep isn’t just a song — it’s a raw, emotional outburst of betrayal, heartbreak, and power.No other song captures the burning sting of being betrayed by someone you trusted so deeply.Every beat feels like a heartbeat that’s been broken, and every word cuts like truth.To me, this is the ultimate anthem of pain turned into strength. 💔🔥Languages may divide us, but emotions connect us. Do you have a favorite song that speaks about betrayal?This surrealist painting by Frida Kahlo was created after her divorce from Diego Rivera. Referencing Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, the piece reflects the pain of betrayal and the depths of the artist’s inner world

Pause for a moment, look at yourself... Despite all the pain, disappointment, and emotional exhaustion, you're still here. You're still standing. Strong, gentle, fragile, yet equally resilient. Even in the darkest days, there's a hope inside you that hasn't burned out. Even when everything tried to break you, you chose to begin again. You're trying to build the life you deserve, not the one you've been taught to accept... And that, that doesn't make you ordinary; it makes you a true warrior.

Breaking Free from a Toxic Relationship: A Journey Back to YourselfEvery relationship is a mirror reflecting who we are. But sometimes, that mirror is cracked—and the words, actions, or even the silence of the other person begin to hurt us deeply. It's often hard to name what's happening. We tell ourselves, “Maybe it will change,” “Maybe this too shall pass.” So we stay silent. But one day, we look in the mirror and barely recognize ourselves. That’s when we must ask: Is this relationship helping me grow—or slowly destroying me?What is a toxic relationship?A toxic relationship is one where you're constantly criticized, belittled, manipulated, or controlled through fear or guilt. It drains your self-worth, your energy, and your joy for life. It makes you lose touch with who you are.Freedom begins with a decision.The first step is to honestly see what’s happening and admit that it’s no longer serving you. Ask yourself: “What would my life be like without this relationship?” The answers might guide you to the clarity you’ve been seeking.Seeking support is not weakness—it’s courage.Leaving a toxic relationship isn’t easy. Emotional bonds, fears, guilt, and habits can pull you back. But you don’t have to go through it alone. A therapist, a trusted friend, or a support group can help you reconnect with yourself and find strength in your truth.Boundaries are the foundation of healing.Learning to say no, creating distance, and prioritizing your needs—these are key to breaking the toxic cycle. Every “no” you say to the other is a “yes” to yourself.Remember who you were before the pain.Who were you before this relationship? What did you love? What were your dreams? Reconnect with that person. Treat yourself with compassion. Because the most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one you build with yourself.
