“Yo chomi, this one hits different 😭 heartbreak really has a way of humbling everyone. Take your time, though, don’t rush healing just to “move on” for the sake of it. One day at a time, even the strongest feelings fade eventually. And as for ‘andigowi ndiyafokofa bafazi’ 😅 just don’t let pain turn into decisions you’ll have to unlearn later, hey.”
