I Wish To Be
used to think that love was about something I earned. I thought it was about collecting reason by reason. It feels like I will get a lot of love as a prize for having good behavior. It really seems like a reward for being the shiniest version of myself.

Why It’s Okay to Not Be Okay Sometimes
There was a time when I thought being strong meant being happy all the time. I wore smiles like armor. I answered “I’m fine” before anyone could even finish asking how I was. I filled my days with productivity and people and noise—anything to avoid sitting in stillness with how I really felt.

She Told Me I Was Her Best Friend — Then Tried to Replace Me Behind My Back. AI-Generated.
I used to think me and her were locked in. Like, for real. We’d talk for hours — the kind of convos where time doesn’t even exist. We had dumb inside jokes that made no sense to anyone else. We’d trauma dump on each other at 2 a.m., vent about life, family, the stuff nobody else really cared enough to ask about. She told me I was her “safe space,” and honestly, I believed her. Felt like I finally found someone who got me. Someone who saw me — not just some random dude in the background.

The S'Mug of Victory
My paternal grandmother is a loud, rude woman. I think you know the type. If you suggest she's being too loud or too rude, she responds with phrases like "That's just how I am" and "At least I'm honest." Neither has she ever particularly cared for me much. So, on one of the few trips to visit my family while we lived in Florida, when we went on an activity that I had chosen as a reward for doing well in school, it was no big surprise that she complained and made a scene the whole way.

Best Deep Cleaning Service Company in Dubai
Keeping your home or office spotless in a city like Dubai can be a real challenge. Dust from ongoing construction, humid air, and heavy foot traffic all make deep cleaning not just helpful but necessary. While surface cleaning handles the obvious mess, deep cleaning tackles the hidden grime and allergens that build up over time.

Impacting Others, Happy or Brilliant, and Huggers
Some people leave behind echoes—words, gestures, tiny acts of care—that resurface long after the moment has passed. Over the years, I’ve been told by friends, family, and even acquaintances that something I once said or did helped them in ways I couldn’t have imagined at the time.

Together Again
Introduction This morning, I woke and my phone was on 3% power, not ideal when I needed it for my visit to Preston. My phone has my train tickets and railcard on, so without it, my journey would be a little difficult, to say the least. I think my charger is not working, but it was a cheap Poundland one, and I have had it for a few years, so it has now gone.
