Mental Growth - Tumblr Posts
aug26 i had a really good day today :3
i felt glum for a while— though my day did start with a trip to the zoo,, so i feel silly to call myself glum /i love every emotion/
mellie and i took a long nap mid afternoon, from about 2-4. we slept opposite so it wouldn’t feel like we were bedtime sleeping.
i mealish prepped rlly good stuff for the week, like hummus, korean cucumber, tri-color quinoa, brown rice, baked chickpeas— and more! it felt rlly good to be proactive about fueling myself rlly well. healing and growing and reaping all the benefits- finally. contentment !
while i cooked, my mom was in headphone land (childhood term :3), bopping her head to the music she was working on. mink sat upstairs talking with her momma- lovely lovely lady :3. lovely ladies!
now i’m wrapping up my friday with a spotify dj sesh and skin care/self care. moisturizing and massaging and thanking my self for getting me through this day and every day. it gives me time to reflect on the day- what i can do to make tomorrow equally if not better (worse would be okay, too).
thinking of all the highlights, all the people who helped me in some way. my brother, who is showing mink and i his favorite anime currently. my mom, who told me excitedly about red pavers she got to nab for our backyard- which she works very very hard on. my mellie- who is so patient and so kind. for her helping me shell the chickpeas, laying opposite on the bed talking about our emotions that day, who grabs my glass of water, the charger, the purse (very forgetful, i am ;) )
so happy that this was the saddest day i’ve felt in so long. to finally be able to breathe through the sadness. i am so grateful that i get to continue changing and growing. i cannot wait for my future.
trying out longer style posts as well :) let me know if it’s good or too much /gen

finding happiness in emptiness
🐇🫚💗
self reflection
feeling empty may be an indicator that we need to pause and take a step back from the bustle of our daily lives. this introspection becomes personal growth and a greater understanding of what we may be seeking in life.
appreciating simplicity
embracing feelings of emptiness will allow you to better appreciate the “tiny” joys of life. in the absence of excess— you can see more of what you already have, what is already beautiful despite its ordinariness.
reevaluation of priorities
if you feel empty despite achieving your goals, it's perhaps an opportunity to reevaluate our priorities. maybe you have been pursuing what others expect of you, or what you have misguidedly expected of yourself, rather than what actually feels fulfilling for YOU!
it is okay to seek support if dealing with persistent feelings of emptiness. you don't have to go through it alone, and there are resources available to help in finding contentment and meaning throughout your life.
good morning darlings!!!
new week= new starts =new YOU!
how will you redefine personal growth and success this week?

the woman i want to be loves to
educate herself on various topics
take care of herself mentally, physically and spiritually
be pretty in her own way. prettiness doesn’t hurt and isn’t strict, it adapts itself through her authenticity
explore her inner world & the outer world
be in tune with her inner child
embrace and understand her emotions, even the bad ones
be kind, specially with herself
be organized, but flexible with what life gives her
work hard, rest hard. she loves to be in harmony and have a balanced life
eat light and nourishing food
feel good in her own skin and she actively work on it everyday
take her meds because she knows it’s good for her
the secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine
full offence but nobody is immune to propaganda so instead of shitting on somebody's attempt to educate themselves and be better, because you think "oh but i ALREADY knew the truth x years ago," how about you look in the mirror and think about that one time YOU fell for some bullshit too
