Hello love reader/s! Today, I'm going to share something a bit different to you all. It's an online personalized jewelry shop store that specializes in customizing jewelry of your choice. Growing up, I'm always drawn to cute things with a meaning behind it, be it old knick-knacks from family or just that cheap ring that comes from candy if you buy one. Where I live, we used to have a specific day of the year where people from other places will visit our town to sell personalized necklaces or rings or even bracelets. I always get the necklace for myself and bracelets for my friends. It's a beautiful time because everything back then was so simple.

Hello, lovely people who are reading this post. How was your new year so far? I bet you guys are very motivated to hit all your goals and to tick off those that are in your bucket list. Meanwhile, here I am slowly coming to life and getting back to what I used to do. I decided that I don't need to have a lot of goals this year instead, I'll just try to live it as it should be lived. I have found comfort and contentment surrounded by the things that make me somewhat happy.

 Another year has passed, another year has come. It's scary how time seems to fly in just a blink of an eye. 2019 has been fun and it certainly brought me to places I've never been before, I get to experience stuff for the first time, and most importantly, I learned. Surprisingly, 2019 was the year I became productive and busy, it's the year where I realized how important some of the stuff I don't consider as such. Though my 2019 had a lot of down moments, it sure did open my eyes to what I really want in life. 2019 for me was a revelation, I never knew that I had the courage to let go of the things and people I cared at one point in my life. It showed me that though life is unfair, I can make it a little less hard on myself by putting my happiness and well-being before other people's expectations. To quote Meg March: "Just because my dreams are different than yours, it doesn't mean they're unimportant." I have struggled, endured, and thrived.

Months ago, I watched a documentary about The Minimalist on Netflix and it struck a chord into my heart. I watched Ted Talks, listen to podcasts, and even read articles about it to educate myself about the topic. And what I learned is very important not just for my mental health, but also about how I look and approach life from where I'm at. Right now, I'm decluttering my closet, beauty products I own, and my bookshelf. I'm halfway there and I'm positive that this will make a positive impact.
