Washi Tape | Reading Poetry For You Series | Biyating Collaboration

Featuring three passages from Biyating's writings and my own. The entire roll of washi tape captures the essence of being in love. What is love? What does it feel like? I'll tell you, it's not always sweet. More than happiness, perhaps it's more about pain. Worrying about the other person, jealousy, sadness, anger, frustration— all these emotions that cause pain stem from caring deeply for them. Even when it's bothersome, it somehow makes you happier. This is love. When you're constantly thinking about someone, you become incredibly strong. As Biyating puts it: **Life won't always go smoothly,** **but that's okay because in life, there's you.** ♡ "Practicing Liking" in the washi tape isn't about forcing yourself to like things you detest. It can be interpreted in many ways: **Practicing liking** things you initially disliked, trying not to hate them or dwell on them, leading to a better, more open state of mind. **Practicing liking** the people you like, sometimes even embracing their small flaws. But true practicing liking is about both people growing better together 🙌 **Practicing liking** by appreciating what they love, extending that affection to everything associated with them. **Practicing liking** yourself, becoming your own greatest strength. Every single day, you must **practice liking** 💓 ♡ Japanese Washi Tape ♡ 3cm x 10m
