a red flag i'm working on is how i shut down really easily and very fast... like to protect myself, my heart, my sanity there are times where i have to not continue a conversation, not engage, walk away, etc. sometimes it's the right thing & other times it makes things way worse.
I’ve known 2/3 of my closest friends for 10+ years and that’s literally what adulthood is, you find 2-3 people you can comfortably sit in silence with that share your humor and you stick besides them
If you pay attention to the patterns of your life you’ll realize everything always works out. Everything always takes you to a greater destination. You always grow and the things you think you can’t survive you somehow divinely make it through. That’s life. Always remember that.
Study your past. Like you're watching a movie based on your life. Focus on your patterns, how you react, how you decide, what worked, what didn't, why it worked. Take notes. Learn the lessons and never repeat the mistakes. This will make you unstoppable.
If you want to spend your life with someone, you HAVE TO UNDERSTAND there will be arguments, bad days & good days. Learn to forgive.. relationships are more than just pictures & cute videos.
One thing that I am NOT going to do w/my son is make him afraid of me. Respect me, yes. But I don’t want him to be scared to tell me things. That’s one thing I gotta say my parents did, that made me not tell them very important things bc I was scared I was going to get in trouble
She woke up crying in pain this morning and wouldn't settle for me, she saw her dad and immediately reached for him & settled as soon as he held her close 🥺❤️❤️ she's turning into a daddy's girl already 😩
