Me vs. April: A Healing Arc

May 8th 2025

Hi hi hiii my lovelies!! Yes, I am uploading this late. Yes, I have been slacking on content production—but it's okay because I'm here now! Reporting live from the frontlines of growing pains, healing, and delusion (as always). And I have my What I Learned in April list ready for you.

April was yet another month. That's it. That's all I got. No other words, just vibes. Vibes that left me emotionally bruised, spiritually humbled, and mentally two seconds from naming new characters after the people who screwed me over this month. Probably should've processed my emotions, started writing a new WIP instead 🌸 🤸🏽

Life is absolutely lifeing, but I'll leave those details for my next post 🤍

MORAL OF THE STORY I survived April. In the name of survival, growth, and hopefully making my therapist proud, I present to you:

What I Learned in April 🌸🤍

• believe patterns, not promises.

• people will show you they are. believe them.

• you are allowed to outgrow people.

• learn to recognize when you're watering plants that need to be pruned.

• rejection is redirection.

• some firsts are painful but necessary.

• trust your intuition. protect your energy.

• karma always comes through.

• not everyone deserves access to you.

To be entirely honest, April felt like being in the last level of a video game with no health bar and no idea what the controls do. But, still, I came out a little stronger, wiser, and a LOT less tolerant of nonsense. If you're in your own season of pruning, outgrowing, or questioning everything—you're not alone. Growth is hard. Letting go is hard. Being the bigger person is annoying. But you're doing it, and that says so much more about you than it does anyone else.

I'm proud of you, of me. Of us. And May better come correct because we need a break.

See you in the next post for my regular chaotic life update (spoiler: it involves pollen, chaos, and existential dread, per usual).

With love,

stay magical ✨

Lyssa 🌸🤍
