manifestations

here's to new beginnings!

a blank slate

a fresh page

a whole new year

on the very precipice of something extraordinary.

i’m manifesting, planning, dreaming

it’s so cold in my apartment.

i’m covered in blankets with my laptop on my lap and notebooks all around me.

my tea cools as I scribble in my journal.

i feel like a witch casting a spell

PROSPERITY

this is my word for 2026

and I won’t have it any other way

i am tired of waiting on the sidelines

of the heavy shame on my shoulders

the constant what if’s

waiting for something to change

as if i don’t have full control of my own destiny

all that doubt has been left behind in 2025

im taking this year by the horns!

or whatever the saying is.

i’ve always said i was an artist

but never quite took myself seriously in that regard

why wouldn’t you take your art seriously?

why not?

i will be audaciously delusional

and it might very well work :)

@sunlightafterdark on ig

It would have made more sense if I posted this at the beginning of the month but I didnt so I’m posting it now. I’ve already achieved one of my goals for the year since writing this. I am taking it as a very good sign that indeed, things will work out for me :)

YEAR OF THE FIRE HORSE

ok bye,
