You never once looked back to ask how I've been! 👀💔 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Tap a planet to travel to a mantra I've been crawling through my own hellish nightmares. I've been facing many glares. 🔥 The public mask, the persona the outside world admires, crumbles inside. A normal life cycle for the phoenix trying to hide. 🦅 In the flames, I burn your memories.

Sailing Through Life ⛵

This transmission is being zapped to you straight from my backlog. Yes, friends, we will get there someday! Life has a way of pulling us through some rough sailings, but we always survive. 🌊 Being Surinamese is all about resilience and knowing how to adapt to any change or circumstance that comes our way.

Calm waters.

We’ll keep sailing forward aboard the Story Time spaceship—sometimes going back in time, sometimes anticipating the future, all while juggling the beautiful chaos of the present. 🪐
