hey there.
Krysくりすたる り うい きあん.
Welcome to my little writing nook.
I'm not sure what you expect by being here, and frankly, I don't know what I expect of this blog as well.
Perhaps as a space for me to release all my pent-up tension for various reasons?
Or perhaps as a 'posting ground' for all my pieces?
This is a cordial invitation from the creator of the blog herself for you to join her as she explores the different facets of her life, and perhaps the life of others as well as a place to read some pieces from the blogger herself.

Someone handed me something today.
It was a card, plain and simple, with a soothingly blue background and the words 'YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL' embossed on it. The corners of the card were worn, as if someone had read it a thousand times. Worn out, yes. Faded, yes. But the words struck me deeply.
I've been having a horrid week.
It's not some giant catastrophe that has suddenly decided to plant itself in the middle of my life, but rather a series of small stumbling-blocks that have made my life suddenly seem so wearisome. I second-guess, overthink, and still I feel so down.
So when that someone handed me the card, I felt infinitely grateful, and for a teensy while, I was happy.
The person probably didn't even mean his actions, to him, it probably was a way of discarding something he found at a corner of the classroom.
But the card, worn at the sides with that beautiful message just spoke to me. It reminded me of myself - like I frayed at the corners just as it did. And that I hold so much more that people dismiss; take for granted.
It also reminded me that I'm beautiful.
I'm not an insecure person, but sometimes, girls like to be reminded that they are beautiful, even if they aren't, not really. Especially when they're feeling low, and their self-esteem is being slowly grounded into smithereens,
It is a simple message, but one that I am in dire need of, evidently.
The emptiness has settled again.
I am tired and tired and tired.
Don't ask me to feel now, I'm on autopilot. As it is, I'm barely functioning.
But I know this.
I am beautiful.
No matter what you say, words can't bring me down... so don't you bring me down today. Labels: reflections

Musing and overthinking is her forte, as well as coming out with stuff you won't see anywhere else.
