I feel like a mom on facebook reblogging this but I genuinely like it. I want to make this into a full size poster and put it in my 3rd grade classroom but I’m 20 yrs old and not a teacher

So many people treat anger as something inherently toxic that you have to repress, but it can actually be a sign of growth and recovery. If you have been through trauma and abuse, reaching a place where you're able to go "your behavior is not acceptable and I'm not going to tolerate it because I know I deserve better" is very much a GOOD thing

Less "if they really loved you, they wouldn't ever hurt you." More "hurt feelings and conflicts are an unavoidable part of life, but the people worthy of being in yours will apologize and work on their behavior once they realize they are hurting you. You can't expect perfection from anyone, but you can and should expect effort."

Thunderstorm jazz is freaking awesome. I need an album of that. I’d sleep like a baby.

Reblogging not for the first nor the last time. There’s just something right about this conjunction of laid-back music and lively weather...

Too many "how to recover" posts being all "step 1: love yourself ❤️". Like dude, I'm sorry, but that's just not step one - that's the end goal...

Maturity is not seeking revenge. It's healing and moving on, so you don’t become like the people who traumatized you.
