Hello everyone!
Hope all are safe and well! ☺️❤️🙏
I just want to share something a little random today. It is something that made me smile when it popped up from my phone gallery. It brought back memories, not in a painful way anymore, but in a way that reminded me how far I’ve come and how much I’ve grown.
When I was young, I always dreamed of experiencing a real fireplace, the kind I used to see on TV. You know those movies set in snowy countries, where the family sits by a big glowing fireplace sipping hot chocolate? I used to imagine how warm and cozy it must feel, especially during winter. I grew up fascinated by that simple corner of a home that seemed to bring everyone together.
Of course, in reality, the fireplace we had at home was completely different. Ours was in the kitchen, and it wasn’t built for warmth but for cooking. Firewood, pots, and daily meals that was our version of a fireplace. It worked hard every day, whether it was sunny, rainy, or warm. It wasn’t cozy like the ones on TV, but it was a part of my childhood and something I will always remember fondly. 🤭
While scrolling through my gallery earlier, I stumbled upon some photos of me sitting in what looks like a fireplace but don’t worry, there was no real fire! Only real wood for the aesthetic. It made me laugh a bit because it reminded me of that little childhood dream of mine. And honestly, it wasn’t even the scenery I remembered first but the story behind the moment.
That time, I was still with my ex-boyfriend. I decided not to include any of our photos together here because I recently deleted them while cleaning my gallery. Sometimes, deleting pictures feels like deleting a part of ourselves, but this time it didn’t hurt. It didn’t make me sad. I’ve already let go of the pain attached to it. And that, for me, is a blessing in itself. 🙏
Here are the photos I found:
Looking at these pictures now, I’m genuinely glad that I no longer feel the heaviness I once carried. There was a time when I thought heartbreak would stay with me forever. But little by little, I healed. And through that healing, I found someone who truly values me. Someone who makes me feel appreciated, seen, and loved in ways I once prayed for. ❤️🙏
Sometimes, breakups don’t break us. They lead us where we are supposed to be. They teach us what we deserve. And they remind us that letting go is not losing, it’s opening space for better things. 🙏
Have a Blessed Monday everyone! 😀😀😀💖💖💖
Thank You Lord for the blessings and love!
Be grateful in every little/simple things and you’ll find happiness you ever wanted! 😀😀😀
Everyday is worth to be grateful of!
Praying for the safety and wellness of all.
Heal Our Land Oh God!
