I highly recommend being friends with ambitious people. Their drive pushes you to work hard for yourself, and they inspire you to do better and be better. Their good traits rub off on you; you start to want better for yourself and you grow.
I’m strict about my boundaries because every time I wasn’t, I paid the price. I let the wrong people get too close, I gave too many chances, and I ignored what I already knew. All it ever did was drain me. That’s a lesson I refuse to learn again.
I’m learning to be gentle with myself because I’ve already carried enough. I’ve already been mishandled & undervalued by others…and myself at times. So I deserve more patience, forgiveness and consideration at this point
I think I’ve lost my spark. I talk less, I keep to myself, I've mastered distance. I'm not angry nor am I bitter. I just don't have the energy to show up like I used to. Somewhere along the way, I just slipped into this “I don't care” phase.
im in the season of becoming a better woman- not just with how i look, but in how i think, feel & carry myself. i want a clear mind, a peaceful heart & a spirit that feels light again. i just pray God continues to remove anything in the way of my growth and peace.
2026 is not the year for reruns. no going back to old friends, old love, old conflicts, or old energy. if the bridge is gone, then the season is over. i’ve learned what i needed to learn. i forgive, i release and i move forward without you.
