Saw a tiktok about surrounding yourself around those who just get it. Not having to overly explain yourself, change up your humor or anything and i felt that. I love my people that just get me, because its exhausting trying to explain you.
I bawled my eyes for this prologue… We daughters will always carry our mothers with us. Her dreams, her hopes, her perspectives.. We wonder how life could have been for her if we weren’t born? Will she live her life to the fullest?

Your entire life will change when you realize that your fear comes from inexperience, not incapability. You're afraid because you haven't done it yet, not because you can't do it. Inexperience is the problem to be solved—and it's solved through having the courage to act.
in most countries before, women were looked down upon & expected to become housewives, serving their husbands for the rest of their lives. i love how aesun raised geum myeong to have her own life. and that’s how you break generational trauma!

Your entire life will change when you realize that you have to sacrifice short-term freedom in order to earn long-term freedom. Instant gratification will kill your dreams. Sacrifice is the cost of entry. Delayed gratification is the key to the life you want.
If you have a fire or air Moon, you process emotions through action. You need movement - whether that’s working out, journaling, or throwing yourself into something new. If you sit still for too long, the emotions stagnate, and that’s when you start spiralling. Letting go doesn’t mean waiting for it to feel right, it means redirecting your energy towards something that fuels you instead of drains you.
