I’m convinced the people who don’t take pain meds for periods don’t have really bad pain because I can’t even stand up straight right now.
I’m on my hands and knees trying to rock the pain away.
I wish that “me spirit ain tek them” was an acceptable reason for giving pause to someone. Sometimes you don’t know exactly what it is, or it hasn’t been revealed yet, but there’s something in that spirit judgment that should be listened to because it is almost always right.

The real luxury is being able to have slow mornings. No alarms. No rushing to go to work. No need to hurry up drinking your coffee. You naturally wake up after 8 hours of sleep, you pray, you take another long warm shower, you lotion your body gently (massaging it, loving it), you put on your silk robe, you make some coffee/tea, you open all the windows, the first rays of the sun kiss you, you drink you coffee/tea in peace while listening to the birds sing, you stretch your back and hips, you journal… And then you’re ready to start your day. That’s what will always make me feel rich
Me and my son are the only ones home tonight and he talked to me for 2 straight hours until I said "Hey bud I just need a half an hour to do a little bit of work," and he said sympathetically "I bet," then continued talking to me for another 2 hours.
Proactivity. You want to see me? Set something up. You know I’ve had a rough week? Send a care package. You want to put your tongue in my booty hole? Set the scene! Act like you want to be here
