Dear world,

If you’re tired of seeing Ukraine at war,

imagine how tired we are of living it.

Yet we’re still here.
Still Ukraine.
Still refusing to disappear.

Ukraine was never russia.
Not in 1918.
Not in 2022.
Not ever🇺🇦

I’m exactly the Ukrainian russia wishes didn’t exist.

Born in Donbas.
Raised speaking russian.
Switched to Ukrainian by choice.

My language changed.

My country never did🇺🇦

Born in Donbas.

I’m Ukrainian🇺🇦
I don’t fear the dark.
I fear the silence after explosions.

Good evening from Ukraine 🇺🇦
Tired, but still standing.
Still hoping. Still Ukraine.

Just made some comfort food
I definitely needed after such a hard night
And a day full of attacks in Kyiv.

Nothing fancy.
Just something simple, tasty, warm -
The kind of food that somehow
Makes your soul feel a little safer😊

If you see this -
remember:

Ukraine is still here.
So are we🇺🇦
#ukraine #ukrainian #ukrainians #war #ukrainiangirl

Ukraine is still standing.

But standing doesn’t mean we’re okay.

We’re tired.
We’re hurting.
We’ve lost too much.

And still, we wake up and keep going.

My cat Atis has her own air-defense system.

Explosions far away? Fine.

Something getting dangerously close?

She disappears.

Sometimes I look at her before I even look at Telegram.

Life in Ukraine 🙃

Night in Kyiv
2 am
#ukraine #kyiv #attack #war #ukrainiangirl

I have a habit that probably looks
Ridiculous outside Ukraine.

When I hear a loud sound, I stop talking.

Just for a second.

I listen.

Because sometimes
One second is enough to know
Whether you should keep talking or start moving.

Good evening from Ukraine 🇺🇦
Still here.
Still us.
Still not russia.

russians: “Ukraine will collapse any day now”
Us: “You’ve been saying that since 2014.
We’re still here.
Try again.”

I’m from Donbas.
I remember Ukrainian songs in school.
I remember books, not bunkers.

Don’t tell me we were “always russian.”
I was there.
We lived.
Then russians invaded.

There’s a reason I sometimes post
Ordinary photos from Kyiv after a terrible attack.

It’s not because we forgot.

It’s because continuing to live is also
How Ukraine refuses to disappear.

Good morning from stubborn Ukraine 🇺🇦
Another morning russia failed to take from us.

Still stubborn
