The healthiest couples I know are generous with each other. They give the benefit of the doubt. They speak well of each other. They notice effort. They say thank you. Love grows where appreciation is practiced.
Maturing is realizing I am mean, but not in a bad way ! Just in an authentic way ! I don’t disrespect people, but I’m not kissing your ass ! I’m kind but not performative, & if I don’t like or want to do something, then I just don’t🤷🏽♀️!
People really don't realize that "you reap what you sow" is real and nothing goes unseen. The way you treat people, the things you do in private, the intentions behind it all etc.
One of the things I appreciate most about getting older is becoming increasingly honest with myself about what I can accept, what I can work through, and what I will no longer tolerate.
NO ONE TALKS ABOUT THE FUCKING RAGE THAT COMES WHEN YOU REALIZE HOW MUCH OF YOUR LIFE WAS SPENT MANAGING OTHER PEOPLE'S EMOTIONS WHILE NO ONE EVER GAVE A FUCK ABOUT YOURS.
It has to work out… because i want spontaneous trips, slow mornings, a beautiful home, time for my hobbies, and a life that doesn't revolve around weekends.
"fuck it we ball" is for stress about the future, "it is what it is" is for stress about the past and "this too shall pass" is for stress about the present
