If making you happy costs me my happiness I #cantaffordit
Being #financiallystable is enough for me

Still Here | Substack The missed hug is real. The exhaustion is real. The loneliness is real. I write for the ones carrying all of it, quietly, and still standing. Click to read Still Here, a Substack publication. Launched...

الحَمدُ للَّه الذِي صَرَف عنَّا السُوء وما كُنَّا لِنعلَمَه لولا أن بيَّنه اللَّه لنَا ..
‏الحمد لله على خطوات لم تكتمل ولو اكتملت لكانت شراً كبيراً،
الحمد لله الذي ابعدنا عن دروب لا تليق بنا و صرف عنا شر السوء و الأشخاص و المواقف ..

Decided to write another thing about #surfing and what it means to my life. Also, the header photo is of me surfing. Whenever I try to add Alt text to my images in Write.As, I have problems (I'll put it in a reply).

Walking past an elementary school today 📚, I heard the laughter and joy coming from inside. It felt so distant, ☹️ even though it was just a railing away. It seems like my childhood is slowly drifting further and further away. 😢

it’s so funny I just did a 360 from being a cringe teenager to being a cringe adult

The Only Magic Hetero Button I Ever Pushed At around age 12, I learned the word ‘heterodox’.

At around age 12 or so, I learned the vocabulary builder word ‘heterodox,’ meaning different in philosophy from the prevailing viewpoints. I found this amusing — I got to be hetero after all, but in an alien way.

My earliest memory is my third birthday: my sister had her arms underneath my armpits with her hands interlocked as she carried me into the living room, my dad had slicked my hair back with Vaseline, and I unwrapped a Batman action figure. #Nostalgia #GrowingUp #Batman #Siblings #90skids

16) Junior High The author reflects on their challenging experience in junior high, marked by a lack of family support and feelings of isolation. As their family became distant, the author faced bullying and ridicule at school. Despite moments of achievement, like performing in a musical, they struggled to find acceptance and belonging among peers.

I matriculated up to junior high and everything slowly fell apart.

A 9th grade picnic turned into a turning point.
A borrowed purple bathing suit brought attention she wasn’t ready for.
Not empowerment. Not confidence. Just confusion.
That’s how the love-hate relationship with her body began.
