A Soul’s Embrace

Sitting in the dark because it brings far more comfort than the light.

There is nothing here for all my doubts and fears, and at the bottom, the well of all my tears.

There, a child is crying, a teenager is screaming, and a young woman is trying desperately to find meaning.

I look to them with pity; their emotions are plenty, overwhelm wrapping me like vines, the thorns of each new and old emotion digging in.

My blood, sweat, and tears— yet life never feels like a win. How long must I carry the weight I thought I had dropped?

When will I heal enough to live and not exist, to thrive and not survive, to find joy in everyday life?

To find solace in those that love me, to find beauty in those that accept me, to stand in awe of my reflection, to see the me those loving eyes mirror back.

To find comfort in the words that soothe the crying child, to calm the screaming teenager, to guide the young woman, explaining that life is an adventure that doesn’t need a plan.

To help the survivor understand that in order to thrive, she must let go of control, to let be, to not look back— the future is waiting, and the present is calling.

Healing may not be linear, but it’s a checkpoint— so even if we have to go back, we can always move forward.

And one day, we will stand firm in ourselves; we will whisper, I love you.

I love every crack and fissure, I love every flaw without measure, I love every emotion we feel, I love the body that carries our soul, and I love our soul and our love, most of all.

I used to think loving others was the key to happiness, but I learned something life-changing: I have to love myself first.

Self-love isn’t selfish. It’s necessary. When I prioritize my well-being, set healthy boundaries, and embrace my flaws, I show the world how to treat me. The relationship I have with myself sets the tone for everything else.

Loving myself means accepting that I’m enough—just as I am. It’s a daily practice, but one that brings more joy, peace, and fulfillment to my life.

When I love myself first, everything else falls into place.

I never liked the color Green.

I have always despised how wearing Green gives me a darker complexion in pictures. Don't get me wrong, I am a woman of color, it's just that there are times wherein I am not confident with how I look and it's because of a lot of underlying insecurities hidden behind my two lenses. Aside from that, I also just hate how Green was so difficult to match with any color. If you go with Green and Red, it's 'Merry Christmas!', if I go by Green and Blue, it is so boring, If it's Yellow and Green you look like you're gonna pull a cheer dance move in the middle of the street.

Green for me is just not giving.

But I decided to go by that color for my blog as I pledged to myself that I would stop worrying and start my journey to healing. I worry that Green is not the best color for me and yet I have a couple of green clothes, hoping that it would someday fit me. I hate green stuff but I like staring at nature every time my head aches. I may not like the color Green, but Green for me somehow derives as hope.

I went through so much stress from this month and it affected me as a person. I have been constantly worrying for the past week, I do not have any appetite, and I get a lot of restless sleep.

I just want everything to stop.

So I told myself that I would start caring for myself. I am not in the chapter of my life that I cannot make any mistakes. I am a graduating college student and I feel like I am carrying the weight of the world. I am the eldest child and I will soon help my parents and be a full-grown adult. But this is a whole different story.

It's my first time blogging and even though no one reads what I write (I am used to it, I published a couple of works in Archive of our Own and Wattpad when I was younger and now all accounts are abandoned) I would still keep going.

Green is my first step. Revive my love for writing and distract myself away from what causes me distress.

This is my journey learning how to like the color Green.

Day One

Hello!

Today is a step in my journey, and I hope it isn't the last day of this. That would suck.

I want to keep this as realistic and open as possible. Transparency.

Today, was long. There wasn't any school because of the snow, but I didn't sleep as much as I wanted to. I was up late last night making overnight cinnamon rolls and then I watched the last couple of episodes of a show.

I feel a little sick, have a stuffy nose and a bit of a sore throat. Nothing too much, but enough to be annoying.

Gratefulness:

I was able to buy three fake plants for my room to brighten up my space.

I was able to watch From Up On Poppy Hill with my sister.

I studied a bit for my exams tomorrow.

I ate today:

a cinnamon roll (2)

a quesadilla with pulled pork in it (1)

and some fries, sausage, egg, and kale for dinner

Tomorrow set up:

backpack is next to desk chair

computer is charging

phone is charging

clothes are set out

lunch planned out

I think this shall be an interesting run. My cottage right now is just cement on the ground, but today I have put down my first brick for a wall. I am starting, and I want this.

Best of luck, and hard working wishes to all.

Best,

Noah
