there are like five rules to life and those rules are
1. eat 3 meals a day
2. always have a non alcoholic drink with you
3. never trust anything you think about your life after 8-9pm
4. do a little something for urself every day
5. interact with a Beast at least once a day (human, feline, canine, lizard, bird, etc)
and the secret 6th rule:
6. if you can't do all of those rules, just do the ones you can
If you're ever not sure what to talk about in therapy, having trouble with any of these things, steps towards making them easier/possible, or addressing barriers that are getting in the way of these things are all EXCELLENT topics for therapy.
Your exhaustion is not shameful. It is not a moral failure to be physically, mentally or emotionally tired. It is okay to be overwhelmed. You're not inferior to anyone just because it's hard for you to keep up with a fast-paced life.
i love constantly evolving into a cooler version of myself
btw by cooler i don’t mean like. trendier or more conventionally attractive but a version of myself that feels more like an honest representation of myself and all the layers of myself that are shifting as i grow and learn more about myself and the world …. (which makes me hotter.)
Disabled people shouldn't have to jump through hoops!!
the other day, one of my newer friends told me that she knew she wanted to be friends with me when a group of us were talking in a big circle and i backed up a little bit so she could be apart of the circle instead of outside of it. i didn’t even remember doing that and it just goes to show that small gestures and acts of kindness go such a long way and can completely transform someone else’s life. the cherry on top is that these things tend to have a snowball effect, and it can transform your life in ways you could never imagine, so go make someone’s day 🦋
For the longest time I told myself that I should or should not feel, think or be a certain way, because all you heard was that it is wrong to be clingy, dependent and overly emotional. In case you have been feeling the same way I just wanted to remind you: The truth is that it is absolutely okay to need closeness and reassurance in any kind of relationship. Erase the thought from your mind that you are weak for depending on someone; for needing emotional support. You are so strong for being vulnerable and letting other people take care of you. Stop listening to the voices that tell you to be someone you are not. It is your right to have your emotional needs met, my love - surpressing those needs will not make anything better. You just need to find out what you need exactly and communicate it. Being raw, emotional and honest gift and so is your soul, darling.
