A big part of loving someone that people often overlook is knowing they might be willing to do something reckless for you and caring enough not to let them. Love is also having the restraint not to exploit it and choosing their well being over your own ego boost.

This line from Atomic Habits isn't ready to leave my head:

"It doesn't make sense to continue wanting something if you're not willing to do what it takes to get it. If you don't want to live the lifestyle, then release yourself from the desire. To crave the result but not the process is to guarantee disappointment."

Yes.
You're husband material. They see the father of their kids and head of the home in you. You're not like these loose males, you're... I don't know, you're just ✨️different✨️. They see a future with you and not just a male to pass time with. Take it as a compliment.🥹😍

Every time I think I've unlearned patriarchy, I do something that reminds me I still have internalised misogyny. 😭 You really just have to keep unlearning.

Today, I called someone in my shortlet network about an apartment. They had their company logo as their profile picture, no personal photo. The moment I heard a woman's voice, I was genuinely shocked because I'd automatically assumed it was a man. I don't even know why.

Another time, I saw a child, about 5 or 6, walking alone around 10 p.m. My first reaction was, "Where is your mother?" Not, "Where is your father?" As if children only belong to women.

God abeg, this patriarchy thing is deeply wired into all of us. The unlearning never really stops.

I think one of the most heartfelt experiences in life is discovering that someone genuinely enjoys your presence. Not what you provide, Not your accomplishments. Just you, your thoughts, your energy, your existence.

"Women have always had equal rights." Meanwhile — when anesthesia was first invented, doctors weren't allowed to give it to women in labor because the church declared that the pain of childbirth was God's punishment for sleeping with men. Let that sit for a second.

Also Jesus is an incredibly caring person. There’s this miracle that stuns me, Jesus meets a man born deaf and mute, and he takes him away from the crowd to heal him.

I imagine Jesus knew that sound would have been bewildering to him for the first time and he didn’t want him to embarrass himself in front of a watching crowd.

I want a God like that, who doesn’t want me to be a freak show, who is mindful of me being restored privately without the prying eyes of others.

being transparent about this because women’s health has historically been underfunded and understudied.

Friends are soulmates too. There’s so much love in a real genuine friendship
