Shouts out to the people who act annoying the entire time at an event but recount the story like they were leading the whole thing.

8/ But this doesn't mean giving is wrong. Giving is a beautiful thing.
The lesson is not to stop giving. It's to give with wisdom, healthy boundaries, and love for yourself too. The right people won't just receive your kindness, they'll return it. ❤️

🧵/1 - The psychological trap of being the perpetual "giver" is that sometimes your own brain betrays you, you over-function. When you always help, always understand, and always put the other person first, your own mind starts working against you.

7/ The hardest part isn't giving.
It's looking back one day and realizing you built a comfortable life for everyone else...but forgot to save a place for yourself.

I strongly believe that no matter how close you are with friends, deciding what to share about your relationship should be a mutual agreement, not one person's gossip material. Even if its minor to you, agree on what, when, and with whom you share. No surprises.

Just a cute reminder that it’s never too late to become an affectionate person. Even if you grew up in a zero-affection household, you don't have to carry that forward. Be kind, be loving.

Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads out there 💪🏾

I think people who are bad at apologizing when they are clearly in the wrong are just unkind. By the way,It’s "I’m sorry," not just "sorry" or "sorry if I offended you." I'm offended in the first place.

Unsolicited advice is a special kind of exhausting.

Emotional intimacy doesn’t always announce itself. Funny how it can feel effortless, yet a little eye-opening when someone outside gets the conversations, shared silence, and “feeling understood”- the version you’ve never seen.

[Ajing @ajing_b]

We think we have time, especially with the people we see every day, so we push the date, the gift, the trip, the "Thank you", the apology, the “I love you”… until we don’t.

In the last month, I’ve learned so much, an almost unbelievable amount about myself and my life.

One of life’s greatest discoveries is finally understanding who you are and what your purpose is on this earth. It’s a truly sublime feeling.
