love

All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.

Choose Partner Who Makes You Alive
Truly capable people, when choosing a life partner, consider only one thing: can this person give you a sense of life? This "sense of life" isn't about romance, passion, or a willingness to spend money or be overly attentive. It's about whether being with this person makes you more vibrant, more yourself, more free, more relaxed, and even gives you that feeling of "it's good to be alive."

Emotional Boundaries With Friends Who Expect Too Much
In today’s hyper-connected world, emotional boundaries with friends have become more important than ever—especially for Gen Z navigating friendships shaped by constant messaging, shared trauma, and blurred personal limits. When friends expect too much emotional effort, availability, or validation, friendships can silently become tiring rather than supportive.

Winter always has a way of sneaking up on me, expecting me to be ready and waiting for it. As if there will ever be a world in which I stretch, yawn, see my breath in the air first thing in the morning, and immediately think, “Yes, absolutely, let’s do months of this.”
