POSTS STORIES REELS

⏳going through the archives with this one ⌛️

There’s something about posts centered around myself that I’ve always found particularly boring, uninspiring, and a little too self-aggrandizing for my taste.

However, I’ve realized that I do deserve to give myself some recognition for being cool & dope as fuck, & having come such a long way in my life, so here I go posting this, commemorating all the years that have brought me to where I currently am 💖

These photos are from ages 8–26, & were taken in:

Northwest Indiana; Peru (I forget exactly where); Colorado; Salt Lake City, UT; Bellingham, WA; Vancouver, BC; Skopje, MK; Chicago, IL (USA); Washington, DC; Toronto, ON; somewhere in eastern Oregon; Door County, WI; & Banff, Alberta.

That is all 🥰 by @tonykxkx1111

Six months ago, my little brother tragically died, and I thought now would be a good time to reflect a little bit.

He is dearly missed, and both his life and his death have taught me something that I carry with me constantly now: people are often going through things that are far more difficult than we can ever fully understand.

Because of that, I think one of the most important things we can do for each other is give people patience, grace, space, respect, understanding, and love.

We are all trying to make our way through this life carrying things that other people often never see. & at the end of the day, we really do need each other. We are social creatures, connected in ways that are both unfathomable yet easy to forget, especially when we’re caught up in the daily minutia of life, until we’re almost forced to remember, often through rather unpleasant means.

So this is a remembrance post for my little brother, but also a reminder to myself and anyone reading this: while we are here, be there for the people you love. Show up when you can. Be patient. Be kind. Give grace. Tell people you love them.

We really never know what someone is carrying.

Little bro is missed every day, but nonetheless we persist & carry on together, just as we’re sure he would’ve wanted ❤️

Also shoutout to my grandmother, who is pictured in slide 6; she remains my greatest inspiration & role model to this day, and is also dearly missed & remembered by the many people whose lives she touched.

Thank you for reading 💖 by @tonykxkx1111

🥰💖⬇️FRIEND + FAMILY LOVE + APPRECIATION POST⬇️💖🥰

————————

This entire year has forced me to reflect on my life, everything & everyone within it. One phrase always comes to mind: my life is beyond fucking amazing.

Everyone pictured here has, in some way over the past five years, significantly or dramatically changed the direction & trajectory of my life for the better, and continues to inspire, support, and love me to this day, unconditionally 🥹

Through everything, good shit, weird shit, bad shit, chaotic shit, etc., they’re always there for me. My life is so full of love & support because of them 💖

So this one is for all of you. Thank you. I’m incredibly blessed + lucky to have the people I do in my life, and I genuinely recognize that the amount of unconditional love & support, good energy, and genuine care shown to me is something almost unprecedented ❤️

Andre Kočoski
March 16, 2007 – March 3, 2026
Loved to eternity ♾️

Andre Kočoski, age 18, passed away unexpectedly on March 3, 2026. Andre was a beloved son and brother who brought light and laughter to those around him. He had a creative spirit and a deep passion for music and fashion, and he dreamed of building a successful life doing the things he loved.

Andre will be remembered for his sense of humor, his individuality, and his desire to make others smile. Though he faced a long struggle with bipolar disorder and depression, he remained someone who cared deeply about the people in his life and who was always chasing his dreams. Those who knew him have no doubt that he would have gone on to do something special.

Andre is survived by his mother, Silvia; stepfather, Scot and his brothers, Koste and Antonio. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him. His memory will continue to live on in the hearts of those who loved him and in the many moments of joy he shared with them.

Andre is preceded in eternity by his father Aleksandar, grandmother Sloboda, grandfather Koste and cousin Ane. He will be immeasurably missed as well as remembered. by @tonykxkx1111
