Self-acceptance

Self acceptance isn't always easy. We grow up constantly being told who we should be smarter, more successful, more outgoing. It's exhausting trying to fit into a version of yourself that isn't truly you. And over time, you start to wonder if you'll ever be "enough". But the truth is, you already are. You don't need to be anyone else. You don't need to meet impossible standards to deserve love, respect. or happiness. 


Accepting yourself doen't mean you stop growing. It means you stop believing that you have to earn you worth. You are allowed to have flaws. You are allowed to be a work in progress. The way you look, the way you think, the way you move through the world. It's all part of what makes you uniquely you. And that's something to embrace, not change.


So stop being your own worst critic. Stop waiting until you're better to love yourself. You are worthy of love now, not just when you reach some imaginary version of perfection. Speak to yourself with kindness. Celebrate your strength, and make peace with the parts of you that are still healing. Self-acceptance isn't about being perfect, it's about realizing you were never meant to be. 


One day, you'll look back and wish you had been kinder to yourself. So start today, because who you are right now is already enough.

IT'S SHIT

If you ask me,  "How's your life in Jakarta?" I'd answer, " It's great, I'm busy with work and life u know. This city never sleeps" But if you were to ask me again, quietly, when the day is over... IT'S SHIT The truth is... it's the constant, quite guilt of watching my parents grow older one video call at a time. It's knowing that my hometown is just an hour's flight, but a world away from my calendar. It's seeing my old friends hang out on Instagram stories, and feeling that sharp pang of being left out. It's being surrounded by 10 million people, but still feeling profoundly alone when my head hits the pillow. If only chasing a future here didn't feel so much like losing a part of myself I can never get back.

Relationships

Relationships are an important part of life. They can be with family, friends, or partners. Good relationships make life happier and give us support during hard times. They are built on trust, respect, and communication. Without these, relationships can become weak and break easily. To have a healthy relationship, we must first listen. Listening shows that we care about the other person's feelings. For example, when a friend is upset, we should give them time to speak without interrupting. This helps build understanding and trust. Another important part is respect. Even when we disagree, we should speak kindly and avoid hurting each other with harsh words. Relationships also need effort from both sides. If only one person is trying, the connection will not last. Spending time together, remembering special days, and helping each other in need are simple ways to make a bond stronger. For example, visiting a family member or calling a friend just to check on them can mean a lot. Somet...

About Living Under Someone Else's Eyes

At some point, you realize that most of your life was built in response. Not for desire, from anticipation. You didn't ask what you wanted. You asked how it would look. How it would sound. How it would be explained. Fear of other people's opinions doesn't come from weakness. It comes from awareness without grounding. You see too much. You imagine too far ahead. And instead of moving, you calculate. So you pause. You wait. You stay "almost ready" for years. What no one tells you is this: People's opinions don't stop you. Your attachment to being understood does. The moment you accept that most of what matters to you will be misunderstood, ignored, or judged incorrectly, something loosens. No confidence. Clarity. You stop trying to arrive looking right. You arrive real. And strangely, that's when the noise fades. Not because people changed. But because you finally did.
