Curate, connect, and discover

Friends? Again? Nah.
And If I could go back to the day we met, I’m sorry, but I would turn around and walk the other way.
In order to see things clearly, you must let go of resentment.
Death taught me the art of allowing.
“Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success.”
— Swami Sivananda
The difference is—I’m not in love with love….i am love
It’s essential to sit within the discomfort of your shame in order to understand that it does not define you. It’s the only way to cut through the fear and the blocks that prevent you from connecting to the truth of your hearts desires.
The deeper we trust in the flow of life, the more life opens up for us. The deeper we cultivate our relationship with love and trust, the more expansive our life experiences will be. ~ Megan
The weight of sorrow and pain does not dissipate in your avoidance or suppression. The ache of heartbreak and loss remains, even when we attempt to numb it, replace or push it aside.
To truly transcend our suffering, we must allow ourselves to feel deeply, to face our truths now rather than postpone the inevitable. In this process of confrontation, we find the path to solace and renewal, transforming our pain into a testament of our resilience.
In a never-ending void, I descend,
No beginning, no end, no place to mend.
A world of shadows, where time stands still,
In this endless night, an eerie chill.
I'm sinking deeper, no escape in sight,
A boundless darkness, devoid of light.
Lost in the silence, my voice won't reach,
In this void, I search for a way to breach.
Shadows of despair, we tread,
Where thoughts are heavy, hearts are leads
Darkness grip, a suffocating veil.

Death's embrace
In the depths of darkness, where shadows reside,
There exists a truth we cannot hide.
A universal tale, both gentle and profound,
Of life's fleeting moments, where death is found.
Death, a solemn companion on this earthly plane,
Whose presence leaves us touched by bittersweet pain.
It whispers in the wind, a haunting lullaby,
Reminding us that all things must one day say goodbye.
It wears many faces, from gentle slumber to final breath,
A passage we traverse, embracing the unknown with depth.
It steals away loved ones, leaving hearts in despair,
Yet it also offers solace, a release from earthly wear and tear.
In death's embrace, time stands still,
And memories flicker, a testament to life's thrill.
It beckons us to ponder, to reflect and to learn,
To cherish every moment, for there may be no return.
For in the realm of death, we find a sacred truth,
That life's fragility lies within our youth.
It teaches us humility, a reminder to be kind,
To live with purpose, leaving no regrets behind.
But death is not the end, merely a transition,
An invitation to a realm beyond our limited vision.
It invites us to surrender, to let go and release,
To find solace in the eternal, a realm of inner peace.
So let us not fear death's gentle hand,
But rather embrace it, as part of life's grand plan.
For in the tapestry of existence, it holds a place,
A reminder to cherish, to love, and to embrace.
In death's solemn presence, let us find solace,
In the memories of those who have found their peaceful space.
May their spirits guide us, like stars in the night,
Illuminating our paths with their eternal light.
For death, though mourned, is a poignant art,
An echo of life, a journey's sacred part.
In its embrace, we find both sorrow and rebirth,
And in its depths, we discover the true meaning of our worth.

Not sure what I need first a hug or a gun to my head
I love you and adore everything about you <3*says to the moon*
None of it was real its all an illusion <3
I love my parents but I hate them
Like yea they caused me trauma
But they deeply care about me just don't know how to cause they had childhoodtrauma too
But that doesn't mean they should treat me the way they do
Toxic parents give you silent treatment just to prove their point and make you feel that unless you aren't obeying them you're existence doesn't matter
I wish I could turn off my feelings
Feeling sad turn it off
Feeling happy turn it off
Feeling guilty turn it off
But the problem isn't that.....the problem is that the feeling of feeling nothing is also a feeling.
...why can't we just stop feeling

For the past month, I have debated on whether or not to post about loneliness as it can involve various factors or perspectives. I would also love to elaborate on this topic in my next article post as I am exploring ways to dissolve my own feelings of loneliness.
As humans, we are wired to connect with others and I believe it is an important need to be addressed. Without healthy connections, people usually try to meet these needs in a variety of unhealthy (self destructive) ways.
Although most people experience loneliness at some point in their lives, this feeling seems to come with the territory of being a highly sensitive person (HSP) on a chronic level.
The following list includes five common reasons HSPs may struggle with loneliness...
Most highly sensitive people require plenty of alone time to process things (especially introverts). Although solitude is needed to recharge and protect our sensitivity, we can easily take our alone time too far without realizing it. Too much solitude can lead to self isolation. Experiencing overwhelming emotions may also lead to isolation.
Feeling misunderstood also seems to come with the territory of being an HSP. I believe one reason is that many of us want to be true to ourselves and express ourselves authentically in a society that encourages the opposite.
As HSPs, we tend to experience our emotions intensely and process things deeply. It can be difficult to express ourselves in ways non HSPs may understand and (often is misunderstood) as a result, many HSPs may feel invalidated. The HSP may have difficulty finding people that understand or validate their feelings or ideas.
Along with feeling misunderstood, HSPs are prone to fearing rejection. Many of us struggle with social anxiety and may feel inadequate.
I believe that many people don't realize that HSPs tend to be highly self conscious and can be hard enough on themselves. The added pressure from other's criticism can simply be too much to process for an HSP. This can lead to withdrawal and loneliness.
Hsps are often intuitive empaths that can pick up the energy from the environment or other's. We can also easily pick up on social cues, expressions, intentions or the underlying motives of other's.
HSPs may also feel super uncomfortable around "fake" people and want to avoid surface level friendships in general. HSPs tend to prefer deep and meaningful connections and conversations and may avoid certain people or situations if an uncomfortable vibe or feeling arises.
Highly Sensitive people are known for having abundant inner worlds and a natural talent for creativity (which is amazing)! Unfortunately, this trait can also make HSPs more prone to rumination (overthinking/feeling about situations).
Rumination can also be linked to anxiety, depression, trauma, various forms of addictions (All can be isolating experiences).
The heightened state of anxiety associated with rumination may lead to a fight or flight reaction causing an HSP to either avoid social situations or negatively react. This can lead to more feelings of isolation, invalidation, and avoidance.
You Are Not Alone!
If anyone can relate to this article, please know that you are not alone in this world and your feelings are valid! There are others (including myself) that can relate and care!
I plan on writing more about this topic and my journey to dissolving my chronic loneliness.
If you can relate to this post or need to reach out, feel free to share in the comments! Thankyou very much for your support!
With Love,

I crave INTIMACY desperately, but when I’m touched I pull myself away. It’s been so long since I’ve been able to allow anyone in my life.. I am triggered when I am hugged, kissed, admired by others and yet I disagree with them all.
We were forced to be in a world we didn’t even consent to be in.
I’m afraid of what’s real and what’s a delusion.
