iam reading this and iam reading you and there's so much love it's making me want to call my friends. wenyi reading your post is equivalent to me eating ice cream for breakfast maybe better
"If you cannot hold onto light, you can at least hold onto words" is such a beautiful and introspective sentence. Absolutely loved reading this, thank you for sharing!
this is so so so amazing to read !!! i love the “listing things that you are thankful for” idea because it really helps me see the world positively <3 i love ur writing sososos much !!!
This is so beautiful and so full of love and I love the little tip of writing three things to be grateful for. I too struggle with this idea that when things are going too well, it means something bad is coming. This is just what I needed with my morning coffee🖤
Thank you so much! And I think what helped me most was realizing the opposite was true too - if things are going poorly, then good things are on the horizon :) so it's better to focus on the moment when things r well and to hold on + wait when things r bad. (But ofc it still takes a very conscious effort to remember hahaha)
thank you for writing this! i feel relieved knowing that writing about joy is a collective struggle and glad to be reminded that it can start from the little things of everydayy
"If I cannot hold onto these blessings, I can at least trace their outline with my pen." so um yet again you've split my soul, wenyi. this is such a lovely + acute representation of why i write.
Lovely read. Ah yes, *the fear*. When I went from precarity to relative stability, I wondered if the fear was every gonna go away. It goes dormant and rears up when things get shaky, but a good thing to remember is that you are capable of making your life better. You did it before, you can do it again. Happy for your continued success!
