Hi, P.I.M PALS! \(🎀♡^-^♡)/ 🌸🩰🤍✨

It’s me, Selene, the blogger behind P.I.M & PINK, writing this to you! 👩🏻‍💻🎀🌸🩰🤍🎼✨

I sincerely hope and pray that all of you are having a very lovely, serene, and healing summer day today in Jesus name! 🙏🏼🌸🤍🎼✨

Welcome back to my soft pink world, P.I.M & PINK, for I am so happy you could be here! 🤗🌸🤍🎼✨

Today’s date and blog post is very special, as I will be acknowledging and celebrating my five-year anniversary of my blog, P.I.M & PINK! ~ Yay! 😄👏🌸🤍🎼✨

Exactly five years ago, I created my blog/website, P.I.M & PINK, on September 20, 2020. However, I did not make my blog public and launch my first blog post until August 22, 2021. 🌸🤍✨

Since then, I have been running my blog/website, P.I.M & PINK, to this very day for five years now, and I have written and published a total of 75 blog posts so far, some embedded with pictures, illustrations, Instagram reels, and/or YouTube videos of me talking or singing to you all in them. 💻🌸📱🤍✨

Those of you who have been following my blog/website, P.I.M & PINK, for a while now, since its launch, would especially know just how much it has grown and expanded into other areas over the past five years. 💻🌸📱🤍✨

For instance, take for example, the new addition of the official P.I.M & PINK YouTube channel! 😄💻🌸📱🤍✨

Last year on my blog, I made a special announcement in my four-year blogiversary post that I would be starting a YouTube channel for my blog, P.I.M & PINK. 🤗💻🌸📱🤍✨

It was not until earlier this year on March 20, 2025, the first day of spring, when that dream finally came true. 🥹💻🌸📱🤍✨

On that day, I created a YouTube channel for my blog, P.I.M & PINK, as planned, and published my first YouTube video called, “Welcome to P.I.M & PINK! ♡ ~ MY FIRST VIDEO! ♡“, which is in essence, a callback to my first-ever blog post on my blog/website, P.I.M & PINK, called, “Welcome to P.I.M & PINK Blog!“. 🥰💻🌸📱🤍✨

For more info about my blog and my channel, P.I.M & PINK, you can read my first blog post, and/or watch my first YouTube video down below if you have not already! 💻🌸📱👇🏼🤍✨

Welcome to P.I.M and PINK Blog!

Overall, many of my subscribers, also known as my dear P.I.M PALS, which stands for pure, innocent, and modest pals, if you did not already know, have been supporting me and my blog, P.I.M & PINK, ever since the time I was posting purely written blog posts on my blog from 2021 to 2023, to the time I started posting talking and singing videos on my blog too from 2023 to the present-day. 💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

And so, with that being said, whether you have been supporting my blog, P.I.M & PINK, since the very beginning, or you have subscribed much later either to the blog/website itself, my blog’s YouTube channel, and/or any of my blog’s social media accounts, I truly thank and appreciate you for being a part of my soft pink world, P.I.M & PINK, for so long, and for showing your continuous love and support on my blog posts, videos, and content. 🙏🏼💻🌸📱🫶🏼🤍🎼✨

Way before even starting my blog, there was a time when I was actually told by someone who used to be my friend that no one will care about my blog, and that no one will read it, after I expressed to them how excited I was to start my blog, P.I.M & PINK. Rather than support me like a true friend would, they instead thought it was a silly idea, and proceeded to verbally attack me and the rest of my interests for no reason like a hater would. 😐

Looking back on that, I realize how easy it would have been for me to listen to and believe in those words of that so-called friend and never start my blog out of fear that people would not care about it or want to read it just as that friend said. But instead, what did I do? 😏😌

Firstly, I ended that friendship, which that friend begged me not to do, and then I moved forward with starting my blog, which immediately got viewed, read, liked, and subscribed to on DAY ONE of its’ launch and so forth. So, obviously, what that so-called friend said would happen simply did not end up happening, which I knew would be the case, especially since I truly believed and still believe that my blog is a part of God’s big plan and purpose for my life to help and encourage myself and others who need it. 🙏🏼💻🤍📱✨

However, during that time of me not talking to that friend anymore, they kept on sending me messages apologizing to me several times for mistreating me and begging me to stay friends with them, and for a while, I ignored it, because my father and I both felt like they needed to really feel the “loss” of me who was nothing but a good friend to them, a little bit longer in order to learn their lesson. 😒

And so, after a few years of not talking to that friend, they eventually sent me another long message after a while of not sending me one, and in that message, they apologized to me once again for mistreating me, saying that they missed being friends, and hoped that I was doing well. After asking my father if I should respond or not to that friend’s message, he told me that I should based on that friend’s level of repentance, and so, I decided to respond back and give them another chance at friendship, and they were thrilled. 😌📱✨

Once that friend saw that I went ahead and launched my blog to the world anyway, and had already gained many subscribers, despite what they said about it in the past, they proceeded to subscribe to my blog, hit like on my posts, and comment on my posts with positive feedback, which felt like they were making up for their past actions by showing me their support of my blog. 💻🤍📱✨

Eventually, however, that friend completely blew their chance that I gave them at friendship again the moment they started to (1) send me comments on my blog posts and videos that were completely unrelated to my content to the point where I had to restrict them 😑, (2) make belittling comments to me offline about my blog AGAIN 😑, and (3) even go as far as try to get me to do things that go against what I teach and stand for on my blog, P.I.M & PINK, which is Purity, Innocence, and Modesty (aka P.I.M) 🤨. All these things and more reminded me of what that friend did in the past and is the very thing that made me end the friendship with them in the first place. 🤦🏻‍♀️

If you were to go off of that friend’s likes on my posts, you would think that they supported me, but the thing is… some people may look like they support you, but then you realize in other places that they actually do not support you, for it is simply a head scratcher. 🫠😐

Throughout my blogging journey, in general, I have experienced some people subscribing to my blog, hitting like on my posts, looking like they support me, but then turning around and making comments to me both online and offline that contradicted what I thought they supported me for. It seriously made me question their sincerity and their reason for supporting my blog in the first place, and I wondered if they even read or watched my material on my blog. It is one thing though for a stranger to act in such a manner, but it is another thing when it is a friend or a family member… for it feels much worse. 🤔🤦🏻‍♀️

Overall, my blog is very important to me, hence why it is also a very sensitive area for me. Like any blogger or content creator, there were moments when I would struggle a bit with comparing my own blog’s growth to other people’s blogs, even though I knew going into this that not all of the information I share is going to be popular because I am a Christian blogger who discusses topics like purity, innocence, and modesty from a biblical perspective on my blog, which for the most part, causes people to get really emotional towards what I say. And so, the last thing I needed was for someone who was supposed to be my friend try to make me feel like my blog was silly and unimportant in comparison to other things that were more popular or that they deemed more interesting. And so, due to my lack of tolerance for such behavior, I eventually ended that friendship with that friend once again for my own peace of mind. 🙏🏼🤍✨

And so, I said all of that to say, P.I.M PALS, do not let anyone’s negative words discourage YOU from starting or continuing something that God has put on your heart to do, whether it is a blog, a channel, a book, a song, a business, or any God-given dream of yours for that matter. As stated in Ephesians 2:10 (NIV), “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” ✍🏼💻🌸📱🤍📚🎼✨

At the same time though, be careful with who you share your dreams with, because you never know what someone, even someone who calls themselves your friend, is going to say in response. As Proverbs 18:21 (NIV) in the Bible says, “The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” And so, it is important that you surround yourself with the right people and influences who will actually support you, and speak words of life over you and along with you when you are trying to start something that God said you are going to prosper in. As Jesus stated Himself in the Bible verse, Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV), “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 🙏🏼🌸🤍🎼✨

And so, based on that, I have Jesus Who I love and trust has plans to prosper me and give me hope, as well as my family and other friends who encouraged me to start my blog, and have been speaking, praying, knowing, and believing that the words that God gives me to speak or write on my blog would touch others and bring them closer to Christ. In addition, I have also spoken words of life over myself in prayer to combat anything that has been said against me, which I encourage you to do the same. As stated in the Bible verse, Isaiah 54:17 (NIV), No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you shall not prosper, because Jesus is for you and He is all powerful! 🙌🏼🤍🎼✨

And so, speaking of touching others through the words that God gives me to write and speak on my blog, P.I.M & PINK, I have received so many sweet and encouraging comments and messages from people, thanking me and appreciating me for speaking the truth in God’s Word in my blog posts and videos, for it truly touches my heart to see you all say things on my posts like “Amen, may God bless you!” “Keep going!”, etc. 🥺🙏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

It has been especially refreshing to come across and befriend more and more like-minded sisters and brothers in Christ from around the world, some who are also bloggers, YouTubers, and content creators, who truly inspire me and support me and my blog’s mission, for their comments truly encourage me and make me feel a little less alone in my pursuit of purity, innocence, and modesty, in and for Christ. 🙏🏼🌸🤍🎼✨

Overall, when I see that the messages in my blog posts and videos have blessed, benefited, and built up those who read it, watch it, and listen to it, it further goes to show me how important it was for me to follow God’s plan and start my blog and my channel, P.I.M & PINK, which reminds me of what is said in the Bible verse, Ephesians 4:29 (NIV): “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.” 🙏🏼💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

However, even in those quiet moments when it feels like nothing is happening and I am getting little to no feedback on my blog posts and videos from people, no matter how much time I spend on writing them, filming them, editing them, and promoting them, I still trust and believe that God’s Word, which I incorporate into all of my blog posts, will not go void or go to waste. 🙏🏼🤍✨

After all, God says it Himself in the Scripture verse, Isaiah 55:11 (NIV) in the Bible, in which He states, “so is My Word that goes out from My mouth: It will not return to me empty, but I will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” 🗣️🤍✨

In addition to this, anytime feelings of comparison want to start rising and lead to me feeling impatient with my blog’s growth, I also remind myself of one my favorite scripture verses in the Bible and that is Galatians 6:9 (ESV) which says, “And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.” 💪🏼🌸🤍🌱🎼✨

And so, speaking of reaping something good in due season, in celebration of my five-year blogiversary, I said that I wanted to do something very special, and so, with that in mind, you may have noticed from the featured image for this post that I am for the first time ever wearing this very special T-shirt just for today, which has my blog’s name and logo on it, you see, P.I.M & PINK! You see it? Isn’t it so cute? 😄👏👚🎀🌸🩰🤍🎼✨

My family also got me what is essentially my dream skirt to go with my P.I.M & PINK shirt! Isn’t it such a pretty pink skirt? 😍👏🎀🌸🩰🤍🎼✨

For those of you that do not know, long story short, one day, while talking with my parents about starting my blog, the name of my blog, “P.I.M & PINK,” was born. My mother is the one who actually came up with the name, “P.I.M & PINK”, and I thought that it was such a cute and catchy name! 😄👏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

In our conversation, my parents and I talked about how all my life, I have always been passionate about protecting the purity, innocence, and modesty of children, which is what inspired the acronym, “P.I.M”, in P.I.M & PINK, which stands for purity, innocence, and modesty, for they became such important values in my life. 🙏🏼👶🌸🤍🎼✨

What inspired the word, “PINK”, in P.I.M & PINK was not just my love for the color pink, but also the general and personal association that many people, including me, often make with the color pink. When people think of pink, especially soft or light pink, qualities like purity, innocence, and modesty come to mind. And so, with that in mind, P.I.M & PINK, being a very soft, sweet, and feminine blog and brand that focuses on and centers around my personal values of purity, innocence, and modesty, I thought that pink, as well as white, would be the perfect colors to represent and evoke such qualities and values. 🤔💻🎀🌸🩰📱🤍🎼✨

In July 2021, I designed the official logo for my blog, P.I.M & PINK. I remember asking my father what my logo for my blog should be and he told me that it should be a pink clam with a pearl in its mouth, for that is what came to his mind when he thought about my blog’s mission to protect and encourage one’s purity, innocence, and modesty. And so, I immediately began drawing the logo design on my digital art tablet, and I finished designing it in one sitting on the same day. ✍🏼💻🌸🤍🎼✨

And with that said, those of you who do not already know, the pink clam and the pearl symbolize my belief that we are all like pearls inside of a clam, pure and precious, but we always have to defend ourselves from anything that tries to corrupt, defile, or destroy us. 🙏🏼🌸🤍🎼✨

And so, on top of all of that, my mother gets this T-shirt made for me with my blog’s name and logo on it, and my family surprises me with it on my birthday, which was earlier this year in the spring. As soon as I saw it, I was so joyful to the point of tears, because it is a dream come true and a long-time vision of mine come to life that I would always draw in my sketchbook, for I am truly forever grateful to my family for this precious gift. 🥹🙏💻✍️📱👚🎀🌸🩰🤍✨

I just want you, P.I.M PALS, to look at this as a sample of what is to come in the future, for I will be launching official P.I.M & PINK Merch one day, and not just cute P.I.M & PINK T-Shirts, but also lovely, elegant, and modest shimmery, pink skirts, and pretty accessories such as beautiful pink and pearl-themed bows and headbands with an adorable pearl in the center of them, cute and classy pearl jewelry, beautiful art and illustrations, and so much more, so please look forward to it in the future! 😄💻✍️📱👚🎀🌸🩰🧸🛍️🤍🎼✨

And so, with that being said, those of you who are entirely new to my blog and my channel, P.I.M & PINK, first of all, I welcome you to the soft pink world of P.I.M & PINK, for I am so happy that you chose to stop by my little corner of the internet! 🤗💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

P.I.M & PINK is a Christian soft pink blog/website and YouTube channel created and run by me, Selene. The mission behind my blog is to encourage everyone to live a life of purity, innocence, and modesty, three virtues that are reflective of the Lord Jesus Christ and His Holy Word. 🙏🏼💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

On my blog and my channel, P.I.M & PINK, I publish various written blog posts, some embedded with short-form or long-form videos of me talking about a variety of topics, mostly relating to purity, innocence, and modesty, which I am most passionate about. 💻🌸🤍📱🎼✨

I share my personal thoughts, opinions, and experiences on the topics discussed on my blog and my channel, P.I.M & PINK, that I believe could show the importance of purity, innocence, and modesty in the midst of this impure, corrupt world that we all live in, for that is my personal burden and mission from Christ. 🙏🏼🌸🤍🎼✨

And with that said, I truly hope that you enjoy your time here, and choose to become a P.I.M PAL! 😄💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

Overall, I am just very thankful to God, my family, my friends, and those of you, my dear P.I.M PALS, for being a part of my blogging journey since the very beginning and for sincerely supporting my blog for five years. 🙏🏼💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

Firstly, I want to thank God Who gave me life and the capability to even start my blog in the first place, for He is the one Who stirs in my heart the right messages that He wants me to write, speak, and share on my blog and my channel, P.I.M & PINK, for myself and others to read or listen to, and I believe that He makes one’s tongue like that of the pen of a skillful writer, as stated in Psalm 45:1, so that I am ready to deliver those messages eloquently in my blog posts and videos. 🗣️✍🏼💻📱🌸🤍🎼✨

Overall, God knew that blogging would be such a source of joy, passion, and healing for me in that it allows me to express myself through writing, utilize my skills and gifts from God, discuss topics that I am passionate about, and share my beliefs, thoughts, opinions, dreams, and experiences with you all, in hopes of helping, encouraging, or inspiring any of you. 🥺🙏💻📱🌸🤍🎼✨

Additionally, blogging gives me the opportunity to become an authority on the subjects that I am most passionate about, being purity, innocence, and modesty, as well as connect with a community of like-minded individuals who want to learn more about those subjects and see how they can apply them to their life. 🙏🏼💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

All these things and more are what kept me blogging and continues to keep me blogging for so long. Back then, I almost did not publish on my blogiversary date, because I was going through a difficult time. However, I did not let my circumstance keep me from doing God’s will, for He gave me the strength to press forward with starting my blog, which is essentially my ministry. 🙏🏼💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

Secondly, I want to thank my family. 🥹🙏🌸🤍🎼✨

If you are reading this, Father, thank you for being the first to encourage me to start a blog in the first place and for introducing me to blogging courses and information that helped me properly set up my blog. You also give me such helpful, encouraging, and motivating feedback whenever I ask you the question, “What should my next blog post/video be?”, lol, and you give me guidance on what my next steps with my blog and my channel, P.I.M & PINK, should be. 🥹🙏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

If you are reading this, Mother, thank you so much for taking the time to help me edit and refine my posts and for always sharing my blog with the world. You were the first to insist on helping me with editing since my very first post, and you continue to give me new and creative ideas that will expand my blog, my channel, and my world, P.I.M & PINK. 🥹🙏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

If you are reading this, Brother, thank you so much for always encouraging me, and helping me edit and condense my posts when my drafts and scripts get WAY TOO LONG, because I am SO DETAILED for the life of me, lol. You always give me such helpful feedback and listen to my ideas and thoughts. 🥹🙏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

If you are watching this, Sister, thank you so much for sharing my blog with the world. Also, thank you for my little nephew who inspires me. 🥹🙏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

I also want to thank my grandparents who have given me wisdom and supported me. 🥹🙏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

I am thankful for my aunts and my godmothers who believe in me and have always encouraged me. 🥹🙏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

Thirdly, I want to thank my friends, some who are also bloggers and content creators themselves, for being so inspiring, encouraging, and supportive, and for sharing my blog with others. 🥹🙏💻🌸📱🤍🎼✨

Overall, I am just going to continue being me and happily create content for all of you that you all resonate with and feel encouraged by, for it is truly my heart’s desire to do so. As 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (NIV) in the Bible states, “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” 🙏🏼💻🌸📱💪🏼🤍🎼✨

And so, with that being said, let us all as children of God, continue to walk on this narrow path of purity, innocence, and modesty together, even if it is not always easy or popular to do, and let us encourage one another as we are called to do by God, our Heavenly Father, with Jesus Christ, walking alongside us! 🤝🌸🤍✨

After all, Jesus Christ is the Creator and perfect LIVING example of purity, innocence, and modesty, and He gives us the strength to fight off any temptations that the devil tries to put in our way. 💪🤍✨

Though we may stumble, we will not fall, for Jesus upholds us with His hand, as it says in Psalms 37:24 (NIV) in the Bible. 🤝🤍✨

And so, as I bring this post to a close, I wanted to once again share with you the theme Bible verse for my blog, P.I.M & PINK:

🤍 Philippians 2:15 🤍

✨ “That you may be pure and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a twisted and perverse generation, among whom you shine like the stars in the sky and as lights in the world.” ✨

･:*:･｡☆｡･:*:･

And so, with all of that being said, Happy Blogiversary to me and you, P.I.M PALS! As always, thank you so much for reading and watching! I truly appreciate all of you for taking the time to read, watch, listen to, and share my content with others.
