someone said, “anger is sadness that had nowhere to go for a very long time” and I’ll never forget it.
It’s always “why did you get in the river” and “your soaking wet” and never How was the river The river looked fun was it fun
Advice your mother should’ve given you pt. 2
Love, friendship, and connections do matter. But none of those things should come at the expense of your peace, success, happiness, well being, and dreams. No relationship that’s good for you should deplete you or cost you. Even when you’re giving you shouldn’t be losing! A relationship whether romantic, sexual, or platonic should be doing at least two of the following: feeding you, nurturing you, exciting you, enlightening you, calming you, and healing you.
Being controlling is a sign of weakness and insecurity. Being in control is sign of strength, leadership and self esteem. Know the difference and treat her accordingly. Women love men who are in control. But never, ever try to control her.
People organize their brains with conversation. If they don't have anyone to tell their story to, they lose their minds. Like hoarders, they cannot unclutter themselves.

Better to be at the bottom of a ladder you want to climb than in the middle of some ladder you don’t, right?
Dave Eggers
Self-control is strength. Calmness is mastery. You have to get to a point where your mood doesn't shift based on the insignificant actions of someone else. Don't allow others to control the direction of your life. Don't allow your emotions to overpower your intelligence.

“Everyone wishes to be loved, but in the event, nearly no one can bear it. Everyone desires love but also finds it impossible to believe that he deserves it.”
— James Baldwin, Tell Me How Long the Train’s Been Gone
‘May the petals teach me the art of letting go.’ And may the ocean teach me the art of finding depths I never knew. And may the rain teach me to fall once more, in love. And may the skies teach me to find peace in space and solitude. And may the sun teach me to burn with such a passion, for all that I believe in. And may the earth humble me and remind me of where I came from.
I will not beg for your attention or your favour. I will not beg for love.
I will love myself. Favour myself. Pay attention to myself.
Gentle Reminder: Please set standards for the people you want in your life. It's not selfish. It's not rude. It's imperative. You are allowed to determine who gets access to you. You are allowed to want people in your life who make you feel light and supported. You can set that standard. It's your life. Don't forget that.
Stay Positive! ❤️

“Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place”
Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
You are here. You survived. And regardless of any mistakes you may have made along the way, you've been given the gift of the present moment to begin again and to continue on consciously. So make the most of it and live in a way that makes your younger self proud.

Everything changes when you begin to LOVE YOURSELF. You no longer send out energy of desperation or need to be filled from the outside. You become a powerful source within yourself that attracts better. The more you love who you are, the less you seek validation and approval.
Stay Positive, Friends! ❤️
"One day I'll be okay.
I'll get to live the life I always imagined and be with people who truly love me for who I am not for what they want me to be.
I'll get to smile more and love myself even more.
One day I'll be okay. But not now.
Right now I'll just simply BE. "
–Rahma Djebbari
It’s time to respect your heart and acknowledge that your heart doesn’t respond to anything that isn’t deep or passionate and it doesn’t beat for anyone except for those who truly move it. Your heart doesn’t understand inconsistency, manipulation or deceit. It only understands love. It only recognizes what’s real.
Because no matter how strong your heart is, it eventually breaks. No matter how forgiving your heart is, it gets tired. No matter how self-sufficient your heart is, it still needs love.
And you must be cautious, because making your life better means adopting a lot of responsibility, and that takes more effort and care than living stupidly in pain and remaining arrogant, deceitful and resentful.

i will no longer
button myself up
and box myself in
i exist for no one but myself
i belong to myself
i am at peace and present
i am exactly who i want to be
for me. myself.
not what makes everybody else comfortable
i hope i am so comfortable with myself
it makes you more comfortable around me
and if my energy is something you hate
i hope it makes you stay far from me
"I wish loving myself did not always feel, each day, like an extraordinary task that took extraordinary lengths and impossible distances to achieve. I am still living in the consequence of a lifetime spent telling myself all the ways in which I did not have value, and all the ways I was supposed to."

here is a reminder for you...
...to try and move on from the mistakes of your past.
yes, you made mistakes and are responsible for the outcome but it in no way means that you need to keep on beating yourself up for the same mistakes again and again, all your life.
what matters most is that you accept your mistakes, apologize for them and learn from them. you know better now and try to avoid making the same errors again and that says a lot about your growth.
keep learning. keep growing. forgive yourself ✨
