🌁 12/17/2023 - “a sagittarius tale.” 🌁

“i need to be quite frank with myself for this birthday. the saying of where do i go from here is such an understatement for i am still feeling the ramifications and the missing pieces from the heartbreak of months prior. sure im not feeling as alone or shattered like before but i been in this stasis that just feels like purgatory mentally for years now. in a cycle where once things seem bright one second, things just fall apart the next. days where i feel like ive given up on myself for i feel stuck in limbo. but then memories of old play, friends and family all in em, the love and laughter and just joy rushing in. all with the sentiment of hope, pushing ever forward the drive within. but i know that time it’s different since for the first time, i am face to face with the child i was once in the mirror, and that child is done running away, telling me that if we want to want to grow and break through it all, we must journey through our hell and purgatory to find heaven within. all this while my crew of angels lift up my spirits to tell me within that yeah you may tomorrow is another day, it’s more than that. what is your dream tomorrow? if you can still picture it, then it’s still worth running up towards, it’s faith. and so i wake up, a new day with the hope of feeling that inner child like joy again, while evolving in becoming the man i know i can be. a future, a tomorrow where it’s nothing but a paradise.”

happy new years eve crew, hope yall had an amazing december and above all an amazing year. won’t lie in saying that for a second year straight, it’s been the absolute best, sure i have been tested at times, but the balance i have found within as proven to prevail time and time again. in time you’ll all know how i got there. but importantly, so grateful for everyone who have been in this journey, can’t wait for the next year with you all. enjoy the montages i made and crew love always! 🌁

🌁 1/10/2024 - “rue de la paix.” 🌁

“i remember that japanese saying about how we have three faces. one in which we show the world, another that we show to our inner circle, and the last that we see only within ourselves. i do think there is some truth to that as for most of my life, i have distinctly remembered the masks i’ve put up towards others and myself. many moments in which im not fond or proud of, as i wished i wasnt so fearful of expressing my own emotions and thoughts at their truest. for so long i have had this internal battle within, wondering if i could ever reach the sun again and feel warmth just a little longer. but there always was that storm filled with overwhelming thoughts, as my regrets and mistakes were why i was so fearful of embarking something new because i didn’t want to repeat any of my wrongdoings and sins. and even when i was sure for a moment, there was always another storm added. watching as i fall victim to another heartbreak, falling for moments that were too good to be true. being let down at every corner. but with every low, i have always seen the angels reach out their hand to me, to lift my spirits. i never quite understood for awhile why but little did i know it was just all in front of my face the whole time. or rather it was a part of me the whole time. quite frankly i know that none of this erases what ive done and what others have done to me but to turn a new leaf, steps towards the light take courage and time. and while i ain’t quite there 100% i know tomorrow ill be taking another step closer to peace for the masks ive had for so long begin to shatter to let free my true self.”

hey crew, happy end of November! happy to say that im still doing amazing, in my prime time with college and everything. chill times with the homies, just good shit all around. next month though, it finna be something special. da funktion time soon. can’t wait for the best december yet. crew love always🌁

“your mind knows only some things. Your inner voice, your instinct, knows everything. if you listen to what you know instinctively, it will always lead you down the right path.”

🌁 facing truths now 🌁

“nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.”
marie curie

happy halloween everyone, october was a fucking trip I can tell you that. still trying my best at college and life shii and it’s been paying off more and more. just being able to live in the moment does wonders. the importance of time does change a lot perspective wise. i do sometimes wander off pondering what tomorrow might bring but if i dwell into it much, it can get chaotic. what’s more important is now, being here, continuing this chapter of my life with you all with bliss within, and fearlessness. we’re only just getting started. crew love and hope everyone’s october was great🌁

🌁 nearing the end 🌁

right off the gate, this year has to be the most important year for me personally and one of the best despite some crucial lows during the year. This year brought so many memories that I will never forget with people that have been part of the journey for so long, as well as new crew members from the college journey. These are experiences I will never forget as it provided joy and prosperity I needed. The Crew will always reign supreme throughout time. Revisiting my family in Mexico in years was incredible as I missed them very dearly and I can’t wait to see em again. Just a beautiful year with so much amazing people.

That said there were lows this year that I can’t ignore as they really became an integral factor as to why this year is important. All the drama, the stress, the ignorance, and on top of all my break up. Not going to dwell on it all too much but it was tough living through those moments but my persistence kicked in as the maturity, awareness and knowledge blossoms more and more. These experiences really were like the final key to feeling the balance within me, and put at ease the idea and vision of past, present, and future. I know what I have to do going forward, I know what to look out for, as once again, I don’t want to live through tough times again and not make any mistakes. And at this point, I feel at peace, just living the moment and everything feels so clear as the year closes out. I feel evolved I guess you could say. It will come later in this chapter but I’m no longer the boy I was so many years ago, as now I’m becoming more and more developed. As we near the end, one story ends and the next begins anew with a greater vision…

2023 is still one of the best years as I’ve met so many people who have become some of the closest friends in my life, while cherishing more moments with those who been with me for years. More wonders are coming in 2024 and while nothing is set in stone, I’m excited once more as what’s to come. The best has yet to come. Crew Love always and farewell 2023🌁
