Yoongi comforting Namjoon🥺

#yoongi sounds like my uncle saying “i hope you keep on living like this...” #i sincerely think about some things and really i regret not using my days of youth more wisely in terms of being part of it #i just used most of it studying while trying to cope with the awful unstable environment of the emotionally immature and abusive adults i #had to grow around/cohabit with #honestly #its exhausting #so ...also in that sense. i can apply these words to me too. although the situations may be different .quite so #when youre used to bearing every single thing on your shoulders while having no one to turn to #especially if you just were raised that way or got used to it #it becomes tiring #to be the happy go lucky or always ready for others to just dump stuff on or just expecting everything out of you #its nice to hear these words ..seeing them talk about this. and it makes me realise i can apply the example to myself and others i know may #struggle with it too #namjoon #yoongi #suga

no but you know what would be nice? experiencing the kind of happiness that doesn’t turn out to be a lesson that I have to mourn over for at least 3 months

#please. for the love of everything. stop making every single person or thing in my life something that never lasts and/or only hurts me.

i was going to learn 12 languages, read 250 books and learn 75 new skills this year what happened

if someone shamed you for doing or enjoying things that are: “goofy” “silly” “childish” “immature” “trivial” “insignificant” “ridiculous”

remember that you’re not hurting anyone by having fun. your leisure time is YOUR TIME. you say what goes and what doesn’t, no one else.

#ah yes. my relatives all the damn time or people who ended up mocking my efforts for opening up about it in uni

I’m no one’s favourite. I’m the back up. The one they go to when they have no other options. I sit and walk behind them and pretend that I am cared about but I’m not. And that really hurts.

Isolation is Not Healthy for You

The Western world is going through an isolation crisis, and our generation is the one most affected by it. Let's talk about it.

It seems like people nowadays have relegated the importance of community and belonging to the back burner. We no longer place the value social interactions have historically had to them because we no longer view them as needed but as optional. This couldn't be further from the truth. Lack of socialization has been linked with higher risks of disease than smoking. It increases the risk of developing Alzheimer's in old age. It causes people to become depressed and hopelessness and detaches us from the correct way to interact and become functioning members of society around others.

Socializing is crucial to one's well-being, regardless if our personalities are intro or extroverted. Introversion should never be used as a synonym for isolation. When you look at many people across the Global South, despite the issues they have to face, they usually seem much happier than those in the West because they have a sense of belonging and community.

Online interactions through social media can never replace real, face-to-face interactions. In fact, being chronically online will only make you more detached from reality.

I've personally made it a goal of mine for 2024 to become as social as possible. If I can't find people on the same wavelength as me in my city or country, I will travel abroad. I refuse to let my youth be wasted by keeping myself from experiences that only other people can provide me with. This time that I have right now nobody will be able to get back to me, and I refuse to live it alone. As I always say, it is better to be alone than surrounded by the wrong company, but it is better to have good company around you than to be alone. To find those people you must be proactive and committed to searching for them.

#i realised i wasted my 20s studying and due to the pandemic havent done much activities i should. #the gap year i took outside of the city my uni is in honestly was the very first time i felt like a person of my age #my parents have always been too damn restrictive. controlling. manipulative and abusive in almost every area of my life. #so i want to make the most out of whatever chance i get. #i already was denied so much as a child too.

sucks when you want to be heartless but you know that's not who you are
