This time it's been a long time. I feel lonely.

Tokyo Diary. 2025/9/26

This trip to Japan is the seventh and longest because we're here on Student Visa. It's not like we're traveling. There's 50\ 50 fun, happy, but lonely, thinking about family and pets, but try to stay. Maybe there's something exciting tomorrow. Fight!

for a really long time I would feel lonely, but not when I’m alone, it would actually be when I’m around people. this is very odd to me because it would be around people that I would call my friends or family as I later comes to realize it was not the right people for me and I decided to let a lot

An empty cup is not lonely. It is ready. 🍵
In old folk wisdom, emptiness was never feared. An empty cup meant it had been used well— it had held warmth, comfort, conversation, love. When the cup is empty, it isn’t lacking. It isn’t broken. It isn’t waiting in sadness. It is simply clear. Releasing old love is not about erasing
