As Valentine’s Day approaches, the idea of love becomes highly externalised, yet the most enduring relationship we will ever have is the one we maintain with ourselves.

A clean room is not just a clean room, it is a before and after. Even our self improvement has to look good now. Our healing has to look calm. Our discipline has to look aesthetic. Slowly, without really noticing it, life starts to feel like a performance, even when no one is actually watching.

The true romance of journalling is not found in where the notebook was bought, but in how often it is returned to. It lives in early mornings and late evenings, in crossed-out sentences, in pages no one else will ever see.
