May we see clearly in a different light


I know it all takes time
Like a river running dry
When the sun's too bright

lights will guide you home


When you love someone but it goes to waste 
Lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones

Dress - Zaful // Backpack - Forever 21 // Shoes - Forever 21 // Crop top - secondhand
 
I look a little tired in these photos I think. Because I was a lot tired. So tired that I got brave and wore a teal lipstick for the entire day, I felt like a goth queen from a 90's movie. Changes have been happening, in the way that I think and move and value myself, and I feel pretty good about it. 
I hope all of you are having a great holiday season <3

You know it all, I seek in vain





In a weird way, I feel like I haven't dressed like myself for most of the year. or i've been so inconsistent that maybe it's just been hard to track. 

Anyway as of today but not forever, I don't have enough money to dress in my true style. so this is as close as I'll get. I think I'll stick with the 90's, grunge esque look for the colder seasons and see where that takes me. Dressing for summer is so....eugh. I feel like less of myself, maybe because I have an affinity for oversized clothing that's not possible pull off without fainting and slight regret in the hot hot heat.

This whole outfit is from Forever 21 purchased at different points in my life and. I can finally say I'm not ashamed (because it looks Goodt).

The sound of silence


People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

i need something, give me something wonderful

Believing for good things to come is important, speaking things into existence is important. Our words hold importance + power, and it's our responsibility in this world to speak to truth and to tap into that power and into goodness. I have been more mindful of the words that I use as of late, choosing words to say that uplift and affirm as opposed to bringing down. it says a lot when you're kinder to those around you who you love than you are to yourself. As I get older, I realize that loving yourself is as equally important as loving your friends. this means being nurturing, patient, kind, accountable, and gentle with yourself as you learn along the way. Anyway, it's early and birds are chirping on this chilly October morning. I need to catch some Z's but I probably won't.

Happy October 
<3

(I got this top in Hong Kong, sorry I don't remember the store name yet :/ )

I returned to my natural disposition to dress like any women ever from every 90's film there ever was.

A series of incomplete thoughts

I blog and write and edit and create because if I don't create, I become stagnant. Even if the thing I'm creating is bad or terrible or cool, it's an extension of what I want to say or what I can't say with words. But. I'm a creative who gets scared to share my work with people, even if I know it's good. I often hold back on my words or input, and try to spend my time listening and learning, but that's not always a good way to be if I don't share as well. // Overall I think that I'm scared that people will like my work (and possibly relate to it)? which is wild to me and I should probably spend more time fleshing out...

 In the search of what ever societal marker we're trying to reach, of fame, capital, etc. (likely in order to survive)// We can't forget the collective and we can't forget community. Within society and what it values, it is easy to find the inhumane and contradictory, to find that most people accept things as they are and feel those who don't accept these things are being disruptive. But we all should be disruptive, and we all should ask questions and not accept things as they are just because that's the way they've always been. We all have a responsibility to each other, and I myself try to remember this when I become increasingly introverted and start acting like a loner, as it's my second favorite state of being.
