2.28.25: Air Pollution

I don’t know what it says about me, but I’ve lived in areas with bad pollution for the past 10 years. Over time, I’ve grown used to it—so much so that living with air pollution and relying on air filters has become normal. It’s strange how quickly you adapt to something that should feel unnatural. Breathing clean air feels almost like a luxury now, and that’s probably not a good thing. Maybe it says I’m resilient, or maybe it’s just that I’ve settled into an environment I shouldn’t have to endure. Either way, it’s my reality, for better or worse.
