Someone said: Normalize celebrating this:
– a roof over your head
– a warm shower
– having clean water
– a day without pain
– moments of gratitude
These are blessings too.
When you are an ADULT, you don’t have time to keep FALLING OUT & keep REKINDLING about PETTY stuff. The same table we’ve ALL ate, gossiped & laughed at can be the SAME table we sit down as ADULTS & have a CONVERSATION about the ISSUE. Everybody “grown” until it’s time to be GROWN.
One thing I finally accepted is I’M NOT OBLIGATED TO. I don’t have to overextend myself. I don’t have to swallow my pride and be the bigger person every time. I don’t have to repair what I didn’t damage. I don’t have to check on people who don’t check on me. I don’t have to sacrifice my peace trying to please everybody.
