Synopsis: The strength you saw in me was the result of a silent struggle. Behind the smiles, there were moments of weakness and a shed of tears. I put on a brave face because I didn’t want anyone to worry, but deep down, I was breaking too. If you’re reading this, take a moment to remind yourself that sometimes it’s okay to handle things silently.

Synopsis: The song is written in the language of love and pain. The lyrics are written in a language that is no longer fluent, but still speaks to the heart. The song is about the struggle to be strong while trying to be a strong person. It is a love letter to a friend who lost his voice.

Synopsis: The art of detachment is a skill that is never easy to master, but some exits are necessary for personal growth to flourish. Cherish without clinging tightly. Care deeply without becoming entangled. The same applies to situations or outcomes that you are reluctant to let go of, but at some point, you should.

Synopsis: Life is not about rotting in your bed, being on your phone all day, or eat and sleep all the time. Life is about doing what makes you happy, and that would help you to live. You have to surround yourselves with people you want to be with, with the people that can embrace you and make you feel that you are wanted.

Synopsis: I used to be eager to look for answers; and I felt compelled to know everything. But I realize that it won’t benefit me; it just causes unnecessary stress. Not knowing everything is not about being uninformed or closing ourselves off from new experiences. It’s about recognizing when certain things are not worth our time and energy.

Synopsis: To heal, we must first allow ourselves to feel everything. The pain, as awful as it is, shapes us. It teaches us how to be strong. Don’t run from the pain. Face it head-on. Let yourself break down if you need to. And then, when you’re ready, start to rebuild.
