I promise you, you gotta train your boundaries to be stronger than your soft heart and your mind to be stronger than your feelings because whatever disrespect you tolerate will continue. Removing yourself from any table where respect is no longer being served is self-care.
It’s so crazy to me how SO MANY grown people lack BASIC manners like a simple “hello” or “please” or “thank you” that’s so ugly to me. One of my biggest pet peeves
romanticize your life, take pretty pictures, feel like the main character, light up a candle, read books, go for a walk, dance to your favorite music, buy yourself presents, do whatever you want, be happy - this is your life, don’t let anyone take it from you
