i'm very pleased to report that my tiktok for-you page has been significantly helping my health. not in a physical way of any sorts, it's mainly just been helping with perspective and helping me to realize how good life can be.

i'll be doom scrolling (which is unhealthy, but i don't have enough time to do anything else that's worthwhile besides texting my friends) and come across slideshow after slideshow of pictures saying things like "To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides," and "It will get better, it will get better, it will get better. No matter how deeply I hurt, I will come out of this alive." I love these and end up saving them onto my phone for me to look at whenever I'm getting down on myself. best part about this is that they all play really good music that i listen to afterwards.

in this day and age, it's so easy to focus on all of the negative, especially when we're surrounded by so much technology and pessimism. i'm happy that through that people are still finding ways to uplift eachother and find love and beauty in their lives.
