Not every love deserves a seat at your table.
Not every presence earns a place in your peace.
Build your world, wear your crown, and let only the real ones walk beside you.

Love isn’t just about what’s seen on the surface—it’s about knowing someone in their quietest moments, in their unspoken dreams, in the way they exist when no one is watching. True love sees beyond the masks, beyond the doubts, and embraces someone completely—inside out. #poem #writingcommunity

Fear or Love: What’s Driving Your Choices?

Every decision you make, big or small, comes from one of two places: fear or love. Psychology tells us these core emotions shape how we act, whether we’re chasing a dream, setting a boundary, or navigating relationships.

We’ve all heard of Murphy’s Law: “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” But have you ever experienced the opposite? That’s Yhprum’s Law: “Everything that can work, will work—sometimes against all odds.”

After 4 days without mains water, I’ll never take turning on a tap for granted again. Grateful to have clean water back—it’s a reminder of how much we depend on life’s simple essentials. Stay hydrated, folks, and don’t forget how lucky we are! 🙏💙 #Gratitude #WaterIsLife

Meet Myrinir, the wild wood elf. He's my RP Warden in
#ElderScrollsOnline and this is a poem I write about him.

Writing poetry inspired by character creation helps me to capture the magic of these virtual realms and translate it into something deeply personal.

I've spent hours on my Luma Island farm—raising chickens, goats, and rabbits while exploring the lush, magical world. The sense of adventure and creativity is awesome! Who else has fallen in love with this indie sim?

Just started playing Luma Island and, well, consider me out of office for Christmas activities. If you need me, I’m busy catching Lumons and living my best virtual island life 😀 #LumaIsland #HolidayPriorities

Life is ever-changing, and that’s its beauty. The highs won’t last forever, but neither will the lows. Embrace the moments as they come, knowing that everything is temporary—and that’s okay. #Perspective #Mindfulness

My favourite song is "S'il suffisait d'aimer" which translates to "If It Were Enough to Love." This poignant ballad by Céline Dion reflects on the idea that if love alone were sufficient, many of the world's problems could be solved.

Writing is 20% typing, 80% trying to think of a better way to articulate something that has already been articulated perfectly well by someone else.

Psychology shows the people around us shape our mindset, habits, and happiness. Surrounding yourself with supportive, positive individuals can boost your mental health, motivation, and resilience.

Choose wisely—your vibe attracts your tribe! 🙌

You are not defined by your past.

As Jung said: 'I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.'

Every day is a chance to write a new chapter and grow into the person you want to be.
