what makes ed happy is... you

Change is part of life. You are capable of great change.

i wont worry about it i say to myself with the always worried disorder

you have to get to a point in your life where you stop apologizing for putting yourself first. your needs are important. your wants are important. never let anyone shame you into believing that the things you do for yourself are in vain, because it isn't. every time you pour into yourself, you're healing the parts of you that felt like all of the effort you've given was too much or not enough. i’m here to tell you that you've always been enough. putting yourself first is nothing to be ashamed of, okay? you can let go of the guilt that comes with choosing yourself. you're more free than you realize.

after it has been new, scary and uncomfortable, it’s going to be okay. isn’t that what we’re doing it for?

ppl who don’t make an effort to listen to their partner(s) abt their interests bc they “don’t like it” scare me

you learn something new everyday. unless you're a historian. then you learn something old
