This is why gratitude is so important. Everything u once wanted, u now have. Be it ur phone or relationship. We tend to forget our power and obsess over our new desires when the proof is in our face. Like hey i once wanted this strongly and i have it, so this is simple to get too
It's kinda messed up that scientists know more about dinosaurs than the female reproductive system.
Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women and still takes years to diagnose.
PCOS has no clear cause, no cure, and wildly inconsistent treatment.
Menstrual pain is taken seriously only after it disrupts productivity.
Menopause affects every woman and is barely taught in medical training.
Most drugs were tested on male bodies well into the 1990s.
So women live with delayed diagnoses, unmanaged pain, and being told it's
"normal."
This isn't a knowledge gap.
It's a priority gap and women are paying for it daily.
im FOREVERRRRRRRR praying that i get my fairytale ending.. the dream career. the financial freedom. the friends. the family. the peace. the love... just everything tht i truly & genuinely deserve
“I don’t understand why women don’t just report it if it really happened.”
When I was 19, I reported mine. I had bruises. Hospital photos. Text messages of him apologizing the next morning. My friends drove me to the station because I could barely stop shaking. I thought evidence would make it simple. I thought truth would be enough.
Months later, I was the one on trial. His lawyer printed my Instagram photos and held them up in court. Asked why I wore crop tops. Asked why I drank that night. Asked why I didn’t scream louder. He replayed my police interview and pointed out every time I hesitated, every time I cried, every time my timeline wasn’t perfectly linear. “If it was traumatic,” he said, “why can’t she remember clearly?”
Sitting there while strangers debated my pain like it was a group project felt like being stripped again. My messages were projected on a screen. My body was described in detail. My character was picked apart like that was the real crime.
He walked out on bail. I walked out with panic attacks.
That’s why some women don’t report. Because even with bruises. Even with screenshots. Even when you do everything “right.” You still have to survive the assault twice, once in private, and once in public, just to maybe be believed.
I’m not crying… Y’ALL are 😭🥹 First thing I see on TikTok is a girl who moved in with her friend for 6 months just to get her life together. Friend told her rent was $350, she paid $400 anyway.
When it was time to move out… the friend handed her ALL $2,400 BACK 😭 and said she never needed the money, it was just to help her SAVE and go handle her business.
MY GOD 🥹 THIS is what love looks like. THIS is grace. THIS is being human.
I'm in love with this quote: 'If it doesn't happen the way you wanted, it will happen in a better way than you imagined.' That's the beauty of God's plan.
Dear ladies never forget that: The same world that shames me for being a single mother also shames you for not being a mother and shames another woman for having too many children..lt shames one woman for having a child at the age of 19 because she's too young but also shames another for having at 36 because she's too old..lt shames a woman who marries young as well as the one who marries old..It shames women who don't have beautiful bodies and shames those who go under the knife to get the bodies. This world shames all women, not a single one of us is spared, not a single one. So love and make yourselves happy.
your SPOUSE is the one who’ll sit beside you when your PARENTS DIE. who’ll hold your hand through CHILDBIRTH. who might have to BATHE YOU if you’re ever too sick to stand. this isn’t just about BUTTERFLIES or DATE NIGHTS. it’s about choosing someone who SHOWS UP... in GRIEF, in MESS, in UNCERTAINTY. so no, LOVE ALONE isn’t enough. COMMITMENT, MATURITY, and the ability to ENDURE life’s ugly parts... that’s what sustains a MARRIAGE. because when life gets PAINFULLY REAL, ROMANCE won’t carry you... CHARACTER will. and the truth is, FOREVER is only possible with someone who knows how to STAY when it’s HARD TO LOVE
