I have this urge to dress up my depression in a way that everybody sees it as though I am perfectly happy in every circumstances life throws at me, which is kind of disturbing sometimes, because I feel terrible to pretend at times when all of my mind is hung up on one thing and I don't care a bit about what they have to say yet I pretend to care. Giggle at pun intended at me, and it is going fine if you look at it without observing it. But if you put me under a microscope I am not doing so fine.

I cried myself to sleep last night while talking to God. I asked him to fix my brother because I can't still accept it. How he's so much alike a dead fish just floating, going with the flow that's it. He doesn't have an opinion on anything. He doesn't laugh so much. He is better than before I am thankful for that. But I miss him shouting. Claiming his ground whenever he is scold. These days, I feel like I actually lost him. I remember how he was in the childhood and I miss his essence. He is gone. He has changed into someone so quiet and unsocial and I just can't  see him waste his years like this.

It all happened when I went to watch movie with my friends yesterday. In the hall, when I sat in the middle of my two friends, feeling like it all fits. I fit. My brother never felt something like that, did he ever? Did he have some one tell him how good he is as a person? He is very alone. He doesn't have friends. He did a group work all by himself and his teacher only graded him because he said he did it alone. And all his other group members are now mad at him and I am doomed how they don't know his good intentions. My brother didn't do it to take all the credit. I know how he separates himself from everyone around him, always sitting by himself. He doesn't credit himself a bit. He doesn't know how much capability he has within himself.

I feel so undeserving of having friends. Me and my twin brother we both were the same. Socially awkward. I got into a perfectly appreciative friend crowd while he has none. And I can't let him be alone. It hurts to be alone. No one knows it better than me. I want him to be able to enjoy life, the simplest things there is, and express his thoughts and express himself knowing that everybody loves him, there is nothing in him that cannot be loved, when will he realize that?  I am so worried about him.

spring is almost here

Hi B,  Season is changing. The hard days are almost over.  The city I live in has turned so beautiful, I get overwhelmed by the beauty.  Tulips are in. Cherry blossoms are blossoming.  Magnolia, Beautiful white flowers, name unknown to me.  Taking a walk out feels like a celebration of life.  It feels like I'm falling in love with the city.  I remember when I first moved here 2 years ago, the excitement and the crippling anxiety of starting a new life from scratch. Now, after 2 years, I feel a warmth and love for the place.  I don't know if I would feel the same when the winter comes though. Seasonal depression is no joke.  My new mantra for life now is to chill.  Praise the nature and find pretty little corners in the city.  Write poems.  Paint, maybe.  Seek positivity.  Love. Be kind to self. No rush. Read books. Just flow.
 Some thoughts. Our old generation glorified selfless acts to the point that they started calling putting themselves first as: 'selfish.'  To a certain period of time, I have also followed this pattern.  I thought taking care of me is selfish.  Where taking care of me is fundamental.  You cannot pour out of a cup, which is empty.  So pour yourself first.   I have to unlearn so many of these toxic patterns because these have made my life only miserable and problematic. I am learning that evolving is crucial for living with inner peace.  These days, I value so much about inner peace.  I'll choose it over others anytime, and it is not selfish. It is in fact for greater good.

long distance again

 I came back from my trip. It was amazing 2 weeks of my life. Seeing him again after so long felt strange yet peaceful. I finally got to be in his arms again. 2 weeks flew by and now I am back home and back to work and normal hustle and bustle of life.  He got an extension offer and decided to stay for another 3 months. It is sad because he was supposed to be back next month. He asked me if he should take it and despite having my heart aching I supported him in the decision. It is not confirmed yet but he probably be staying another 3. Another 5 months of long distance. How am I going to survive the winter by myself? I don't know. Honestly, in my heart, I don't care about how much compensation he be getting. I miss him so much and this long distance thing is killing me inside. Today is Friday night and instead of cuddles and movie, I am home alone. No plans to look forward. No one to talk to. I am the loneliest girl on earth right now. He is probably sleeping and not picking u...
