coolio

my greenest flag is being loyal before the relationship even starts

holding my own face in my own hands and screaming “there is no connection without an open heart! you must be brave! you must be honest! you must be true!” in the mirror

you think you’re waiting for love to find you when in reality it has saved you in a thousand different ways since the sun rose today

Learn the skill of delaying your response when faced with someone who is intentionally trying to provoke you. Refuse to let others dictate your mood. Take charge of your emotions. You decide when, how, and whether you want to to react. You control yourself, no one else does.

ur twenties is just reciting "life is tough but i am tougher" 500 times a day. sometimes thru tears

"do it for the plot" genuinely motivates me to put myself out there even if i'm scared. like if i was a character would my story be interesting?? or would it be bland bc i'm sheltering myself all the time instead of going out of my comfort zone?? these thoughts incentivize me to apply myself to things even at the risk of them not going my way

i am a different person than who i was last year. my hair is longer and i cry less and i am stronger. i am a different person than who i was six months ago. i am free and different and am embracing change. i am a different person than who i was a month ago. i sit in the sunlight without worry and i don’t let things stick and i look up and smile. i am a different person than who i was last week. i explore more and look at the sky and laugh more. i am a different person than who i was yesterday. i let go and breathe. i am whole.

we really are on a journey. we are meant to feel lost because that is literally the point. we are going to uncover pieces of ourselves the longer that we are alive. trust the process and surrender! you will find your way!!

getting dressed trying to ignore the media brainwashed insecure mean 13 yo girl inside my head

also just remembered i am gonna die one day and i’m worried about like the visibility of my stomach and the acne on my cheek. girl get a grip

maybe life is all about waking up every day and trying to learn how to appreciate the beauty of the world without allowing the ugliness of everything that has happened to me in the past to interfere with it

You have to be ready for the things that are meant for you to align with you.
