i hope someday i’ll get to build a garden with someone i love

something I’ve learnt as I’ve grown older which has bought me so much peace, is that not everyone will understand you and that’s okay. a lot of people lack the life experience, emotional intelligence and empathy to ever understand your life and the choices that you’ve made. you don’t need to prove anything to anyone. you know your truth and anyone who chooses to make baseless judgements or misunderstand you, isn’t worth arguing with to convince them otherwise. this goes for family, friends, or even just random people on the internet

high standards protect you from low quality experiences.

Learn to say “no” without feeling guilty.

know your limits and be honest about them. if you aren’t, how else can others help you? how else can you help yourself?

god said let's give this bitch so much self awareness it's going to stop her from doing literally anything

A reminder that healing is not linear, does not happen overnight and sometimes you discover wounds that you didn’t even know were there. Set backs are a part of your journey. Be easy on yourself.

don’t hate urself, hate the system that made u feel insecure about every single aspect of ur life

You know what’s a different type of intimacy? Feeling safe in someone’s energy.

It’s okay if taking care of yourself is hard right now.
