Anika’s Snippets

Today, I finally took a moment to breathe. I've been carrying so many worries, a million things spinning in my mind, and I never knew how to escape them. But today, something shifted.

I stood at the edge of my thoughts, as if on the edge of the world, and I told myself, "This isn't my burden. It's not my responsibility. It's just not meant for me."

It wasn't about giving up. It was more like letting go of the things I can't control. I realized that stressing over everything just makes it harder to live in the moment.
Someone asked me, "Do you even care anymore?" I couldn't just stop caring, but I learned something important. I can't take everything for granted, especially the things I can't have.

I have to treat these moments gently, as if they're already slipping away. And yes, it's true, a lot of things are already decided for me, but within all of that, some of my best memories and stories are created.

I'm learning to let things be, to care without holding onto everything. It's hard, but I think I'm finally getting the hang of it.
