My life remains unchanged, as if I am stuck in an endless cycle where happiness never lasts, sadness never truly fades, and hope feels like a distant dream. Every time I start to believe that joy will stay, something comes along to take it away. And no matter how much time passes, the sorrows of the past continue to haunt me, refusing to let go. Hope, on the other hand, always seems within reach but never quite close enough to grasp. I try to move forward, to break free from this cycle, but life keeps pulling me back, reminding me that some things are never meant to change.

Betrayal is a wound that never truly heals because it comes from those we least expect—our closest friends and loved ones. The people we open our hearts to, share our secrets with, and trust without hesitation are often the ones who turn against us when we least expect it. It is not the betrayal itself that hurts the most, but the realization that someone you valued and believed in could break that trust so easily. The pain of betrayal is not just about losing a friend; it is about losing a part of yourself—the part that once believed in loyalty, love, and honesty.

And I have remembered you, and absence feels like an arrow tearing through the ribs of the longing one. Perhaps I hope for a meeting, but all I find is tears and an abundance of yearning. Come and visit me in my dreams, for my heart longs to see the light.

The battle between emotion and logic makes decision-making a painful experience. Emotion urges us to follow our hearts, to chase happiness even when risks are high. Logic, however, reminds us to think carefully, to consider consequences, and to act wisely. When emotions lead, we may find joy but also heartbreak. When logic takes over, we may find security but also regret for what could have been. No matter which side we choose, a part of us will always wonder if we made the right decision.

"Sometimes, staying close to those who fail to recognize your worth only drains your spirit. Distance becomes a refuge when efforts go unseen, when sacrifices are met with indifference, and when the heart’s attempts to mend what’s broken are dismissed. It is not weakness to walk away; it is strength to preserve your dignity. Better to retreat with grace than to linger where your value is unappreciated. For growth thrives not in the shadow of neglect, but in the light of self-respect. Letting go is not defeat—it is choosing peace over persistent disappointment."
