One thing that always fascinates me about Korean drama is the life lessons. (yes I’m too serious for my own good lol).

The past week was crazier than usual, mostly because of people. I have been providing mental and emotional support to my friends since they’ve been having emotional rollercoasters, in addition to the crazy deadlines at grad school. It was funny because one of them was so thankful that she asked me how I have the emotional capacity to support her and some other friends with their toxic issues.

Then I remembered something about Because This Life is My First. According to the DB recap (because I’m too lazy to watch the episode and get screenshots lol), “Mom explains that everyone experiences moments that sparkle, and when that happens, it’s important to capture them and save them in your star pocket to help you through the tough times” (http://www.dramabeans.com/2017/11/because-this-life-is-our-first-episode-16-final/). It seemed to me that this week, I’ve been using some energy from my star pocket. Those moments that sparkled were mostly with friends. And I try to give my struggling friends the same sparkly moments that I’ve received from other people. While it gets tiring sometimes, I always make sure that my star pocket is refilled one way or another. It’s the least I could do for the Universe after all.
