The most terrifying realization a man has as he gets older is that his grace is entirely conditional. If a woman has a career setback, makes a bad financial move, or needs a year to "find herself," she is met with sisterhood, therapy, and endless emotional support. If a man asks for that exact same grace? He is an immediate liability. He is told to step up. His partner's friends will literally advise her to leave him because he's "holding her back." A man is only allowed to fail if he can quietly fix it before anyone notices. The moment his struggle becomes an inconvenience to the people he provides for, the respect vanishes. A lot of men are walking around with the crushing realization that they were never actually loved for who they are; they were just employed for what they provide
I’m in my 30s, inspired by young Rock Lee.
No talent.
No weapons.
No special eyes.
No monster inside.
Just wake up early.
Do the boring reps.
Keep the routine.
Choose discipline.
Refuse to quit.
Hard work is my only jutsu.
This is how I live.
After you get married, you’re going to meet ‘better’ people than your spouse. You’re going to meet more good-looking people; kinder and more romantic people; more intelligent and funny people. You will meet people who have in abundance what your partner lacks. The mushy and romanticized idea that your partner will be everything to you, and will satisfy all your needs and wants is idolatry. Contentment in marriage is a virtue not often spoken about.
You must wake up every day appreciating everything your partner is to you, everything they have, their beauty and the things that made you marry them because if you focus on everything they don’t do well, you’ll always meet better people. Protect your heart! See their best part, and always remember that your commitment to marry is more of a duty than it is of mushy feelings. You have to stay committed even on the days you feel your spouse is no longer the best fit for you…

I needed to be broke, so I could learn to not idolize money. I needed to be treated bad, so I could appreciate kindness. I needed to have jobs I hated, so that I could work hard in that which I love. I had to stray from God, so I could understand that there's nothing better.
NO SHADE I need friends that's tryna get they life together & keep each other outta trouble. friends that don't mind coming over being bored, cooking, having movie nights, having friend dates, traveling, MAKING TIME FOR EACH OTHER & making goals and standing on them, etc.
Introverts can stay inside for days and weeks. No plans. No people. No drama. No nothing. Just chilling alone. Reading. Meditating. Listening music. Staring at walls. Watching movies. Walking. Snacking. Napping. Thinking about life and all. And trust me, they regret nothing.
