Faking smiles is neither pleasant nor effective. Find trustworthy people to confide your demons in. You may feel a little lighter. You may even take down that mask one day.This was taken another life ago but I can still recall the joy I felt. This feeling is as saturated and wonderful as ever.
Fairy lights were the best purchase I made for my dorm room. They light up my life! (Literally lol.)
Joy is expressed in so many forms and through so many experiences, objects, and memories. Hold onto that which is real and beautiful.
Embrace all flaws, aspirations, past triumphs and failures, and everything in between because you deserve happiness and contentment within yourself.Happiness means building a life out of purpose and community. Those things take time! Give yourself some grace as you traverse this life.
There’s a lot to love about living, so stick around! Maybe stop and smell some flowers to pass the time. 🙂
