Personally, yes, I\u2019m all about the real and the authentic. I\u2019m not into knockoffs. If the real thing finds me\u2014I\u2019m not planning to slap a label on it. This week, we\u2019re speaking from a crystal tesseract\u2014wherever you look, the shape always returns to its origin.

Yes, darlings, a label is like a mental border. Naming something real is like drawing a line in the sand\u2026 \ud83d\ude12 The real needs to be free to stay authentic. I hear you, my dear readers: What do I do with the fear of losing something I like so much? My first life philosophy goes like this: \u201cI don\u2019t need to own anything; I just want to live it as it is.\u201d\u00a0 I\u2019d take a thousand intense memories over a dull long-term sth\u2026 \ud83d\ude2e\u200d\ud83d\udca8 This is the first time I\u2019ll break down a philosophy: I don\u2019t want to control what I can\u2019t see, nor hold onto something when it\u2019s already gone.
