forgiving yourself is how you come back home to you. itās where your peace is, your hope is, your strength is. when you're on this journey, it's hard at first. itās not always easy being gentle with yourself, especially when you make mistakes or when you're being self critical. but self forgiveness is your superpower. itās the most healing thing you can do for you. thatās one thing nobody can ever take from you. once you start, you end up giving yourself so much grace, because that's what you are deserving of. itās knowing within yourself that you have always been worthy of forgiveness. choose to honor your shortcomings. give love to your weaknesses. make peace with your past. most of all, be patient with all of the versions of yourself that you have yet to become.
whenever I watch a really cool film about blackness full of beautiful and talented black actors and telling very black story - or like. ANY media centered around POC with little white presence, tbh - Iām always so excited to see some cool analyses or gifsets from tumblr about it and am inevitably disappointed when I see only a couple posts with like maybe 24 notes each.
unless thereās some famous British white boy in it for more than 0.2 seconds in which case itāll boost it up to like ~75 on average with over 70% of the posts being thirst posts about the white dudes.
i shouldnāt be surprised when this happens at this point and yet I still manage to be disappointed

In between being vomited on, punched in the sternum by a pedes patient, and getting his foot run over by a morgue cart in transit to the elevator, Carter wasnāt having the best of mornings. Perhaps this was why when he entered the breakroom for a bit of a reprieve, he could barely even muster the energy to ask why not one, but several of the present nurses were tittering around the table.
Finally, he glanced their way to acknowledge them, his brow creasing once they kept peering between him and their phones before bursting into renewed laughter.
āOkay, Iāll bite: whatās so funny?ā he asked. āIs there another video with a baby going around? You guys seem to love those.ā
Chunyās grin was cheshire as she replied, āI suppose something about this could be baby-sized, yeah.ā
Haleh and Lydia howled with laughter, and perplexed, Carter glanced down just when he got a ping on his phone. To his mortification, he realized that someone ā Roxanne, from the looks of it ā had hijacked his phone, and then sentā¦wellā¦very personal photos to every single person on his contact list.
Opening Roxanneās farewell message, he blanched once he read:
[SMS: Roxanne] The last time we spoke, you were a total dick, so I decided to show everyone yours.
ā[SMS: Roxanne] At least now everyone can see your shortcomings.
Lurching upright, Carter quickly scrolled through his text messages in a panic, realizing that yes, every single DM ā including one to his mother, dear God ā had been forwarded several incriminating photos below the belt.
Cheeks pink, he clicked on the topmost text to start doing damage control.
[SMS: Daisy] Not for you. Sorry.
ā[SMS: Daisy] I mean, Iām not sorry that theyāre not for youā¦
ā[SMS: Daisy] Just sorry that you had to see them.
If memory served him correctly, he and Daisy hadnāt even spoken in ten years ā they just remained contacts for the sake of Carter functions ā so this was going to be one hell of a re-introductionā¦

#You Will Find It!
I Just Had This Realizationā¦
Maybe I am reading too much into it, or maybe itās just been blatantly obvious and Iām just now realizing it, but I feel like the entire Mystery of The Weird Looking Walrus episode (or MOTWLW) was an attempt to sort of make fun of, and more importantly draw attention to one of Zachās shortcomings/key weaknessesā¦
That shortcoming/weakness being: Overindulgenceā¦.
See below cut for moreā¦I rambled on a bit more than I planned!
Shortcomings were always easy to find. If all you ever thought about were the negative aspects, youād never see what was good about a thing.
