before you say something, there are some questions you can ask yourself... 💭⁣ ⁣ ◽️ is what i'm saying true?⁣ ⁣ ◽️ is it worth talking about? ⁣ ⁣ ◽️ am i saying this to make someone else feel better, or to make myself feel better? ⁣ ⁣ ◽️ will this encourage others, or will it bring them down? ⁣ ⁣ ◽️ am i saying this out of love... or something else? ⁣ ⁣ words have power. once you say something, you cannot unsay it. choose your words wisely. speak with kindness. 🌿⁣ ⁣ be a careful listener – and choose your words carefully. ⁣ be quick to listen. be slow to speak. 💭⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #madebeloved #washablepaper #slowdesigner #created #minimalovers #findbeautyeveryday #whitespaces #thesimplethings #washablekraftpaper #paperbag #theheartofslowliving #interiorism #natureinthehome #homeaccessories #accessorieshandmade #handcraftedwithlove #paperlover #minimalhome #peacefulplace #peacefullife #quiettime #intentionalliving #intentionallife #wordsmatter #slowtospeak #speaklife #bekindalways #thinkbeforeyouspeak #speaktruth #kindnesscounts (at Berlin, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7OxXSTHSMi/?igshid=1sfq1karzo5ni

you don't have to get it right the first time. 🌿⁣ ⁣ you probably won't. ⁣ ⁣ but don't let fear of not getting it done perfectly stop you from doing it altogether. ⁣ ⁣ the perfect moment, perfect circumstances or a "sign from heaven" may never arrive. ⁣ ⁣ take that first step. as imperfect as you are. ready to fail miserably – the first, the second, maybe even the 100th time. ⁣ ⁣ but imagine what could happen at 101? 💭⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #madebeloved #washablepaper #slowdesigner #created #minimalovers #findbeautyeveryday #whitespaces #thesimplethings #washablekraftpaper #paperbag #theheartofslowliving #interiorism #natureinthehome #homeaccessories #accessorieshandmade #handcraftedwithlove ⁣#minimaldecor #paperlover #minimalhome #peacefulplace #perserverance #imperfectlyperfect #motivationeveryday #justtry #keeptrying #donotfear #persistance #slowandsteady #dontletfearstopyou #keepingcalm (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B66VMPanPud/?igshid=1hr3sldajkgfy

forgiving someone seventy-seven times can be a little too much at first – understandable. ⁣ ⁣ but how about just starting by giving someone a 2. chance? ⁣ ⁣ like, giving monday a second chance. ☕️ giving yourself a second chance. just because your whole day up to this point has been crappy, doesn’t mean the rest of it has to be that way too.⁣ ⁣ try breaking the pattern and doing even something small that will make your day better. don’t give up on today just yet.⁣ ⁣ day 2/24 challenge: spend one hour before bedtime without your phone. 💤 #madebelovedchristmas ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #madebeloved #washablepaper #veganleatherbag #slowdesigner #created #minimalovers #findbeautyeveryday #whitespaces #thesimplethings #washablekraftpaper #paperbag #theheartofslowliving #homedecorlovers #homedecoridea #interiorism #homeaccessories #accessorieshandmade #etsysellers #handcraftedwithlove #madeineurope ⁣#minimaldecor #interioraccessories #cozyhome #paperlover #minimalhome #peacefulplace #quiettime #christmasgiftsideas #christmas2019 (at Marienburg, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5lWT2toGpP/?igshid=1vxnzpx02wu3o

you're allowed to change. 🌿⁣ ⁣ you're allowed to change your mind. to explore. to let go of things. to try something new.⁣ ⁣ but do it for the right reasons. ⁣ ⁣ and don't let fear stop you. 💭 ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #madebeloved #slowdesigner #created #minimalovers #findbeautyeveryday #whitespaces #thesimplethings #handcraftedwithlove #paperlover #peacefulplace #peacefullife #dontletfearstopyou #changeispossible #newthingstocome #begentle #fearlesssoul #planningahead #itsaprocess #progressoverperfection #takeitslow #selfactualization #excitingtimesahead #dontbeafraid #authenticliving #mindfullife #simpleliving #simplify #onestepcloser #goodthingsarecoming (at Neumarkt Schildergasse) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5a9N9DIzNp/?igshid=hs3j7zpkicoy

kindness is not a weakness. ✨⁣ ⁣ showing grace is not being naive. ⁣ ⁣ being merciful is not closing your eyes and pretending bad things don't happen. ⁣ ⁣ it's showing others you care. ⁣ it's giving love and expecting nothing in return. ⁣ it's forgiving someone and not holding things against them. ⁣ it's giving someone the benefit of the doubt.⁣ ⁣ you may not know someone's entire story. you may not know what they've been through. and you don't need to. ⁣ be kind regardless. treat others the way you'd want to be treated. ⁣ ⁣ be gentle. ⁣ share kindness. 🌿 ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #madebeloved #slowdesigner #created #minimalovers #findbeautyeveryday #whitespaces #thesimplethings #theheartofslowliving #homedecorlovers #homedecoridea #interiorism #natureinthehome #handcraftedwithlove ⁣#paperlover #minimalhome #peacefulplace #peacefullife #quiettime #sharekindness #begentle #everyonehasastory #dailycalm #gentlethoughts #compassion #staymindful #inspirationseed #worldkindnessday #graceupongrace #showmercy #minimalliving (at Marienburg, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5I43eNI_Dz/?igshid=1uw92jlyixjql

raise your hand if you've still not recovered from monday. 🙋🏼‍♀️⁣ ⁣ i know, it can be overwhelming. sometimes the whole week feels like one long, miserable monday. sometimes the whole month feels like that. (or your whole life?)⁣ ⁣ but we've got this. and if you feel exhausted and overwhelmed, i've got some good news for you today. ⁣ ⁣ you don't need to have it all figured out. ⁣ ⁣ you don't. (!) ⁣ ⁣ "i need to get my life together." ⁣ ⁣ what does that even mean??⁣ ⁣ does it mean for your life to become perfect? because, you know, it never will, not in this lifetime. not even near perfect. ⁣ ⁣ and that's o–k–a–y. ⁣ ⁣ it doesn't have to be. ⁣ ⁣ it doesn't mean you should stop trying. it doesn't mean you should settle for "whatever". ⁣ ⁣ *do* try your best. always strive for the good. ⁣ ⁣ but don't beat yourself up if you fail. ⁣ ⁣ don't call yourself a failure for not getting it right all the time. nobody does. ⁣ ⁣ your worth is not determined by how much you achieve or accomplish, or how many mistakes you avoid, or how many people you'll make proud.⁣ ⁣ you are worth so much more. ⁣ ⁣ be kind and forgiving – to yourself and to others. the truth is – nobody's got their life figured out. nobody's got their life "together". we're all messed up, broken, weak. ⁣ ⁣ but we're here for each other. to help each other out in times of need and to lift each other up. to show kindness and compassion, and understanding. not to bring each other down – but to keep getting back up and looking to the stars. ⁣ ⁣ we’re in this together. you’re not alone. ⁣ ⁣ we can do this. ✨⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #madebeloved #slowdesigner #created #minimalovers #findbeautyeveryday #whitespaces #thesimplethings #theheartofslowliving #homedecorlovers #homedecoridea #interiorism #natureinthehome #handcraftedwithlove ⁣#paperlover #minimalhome #peacefulplace #peacefullife #quiettime #sharekindness #begentle #showcompassion #calmness #slowly #thinkbeforeyouspeak #thestormwillpass #quietmoments #graceupongrace #morethanenough #hopeishere (at Bayenthal, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5DxF0rIthO/?igshid=1hhnb08smu5jd
