I saw a post on Reddit that said, “When you walk through a museum, you’re not just looking at art. You’re moving through centuries of people trying to explain love, grief, power, beauty, and belonging.” I don’t think I’ve ever seen a museum described so beautifully.
You can't give someone a perspective they don't yet have the capacity, bandwidth, or experience to understand/hold. Sometimes, it's not that they disagree with you. They simply haven't evolved in that direction enough to see what you see.
maybe the point isn't to become so wise and stoic that nothing ever hurts your feelings. maybe it's to become secure enough that you can feel the sting, laugh at yourself a little, learn what you need to learn, and keep your heart open anyway.
Especially employers who recognize your value early and give you opportunities before you have an impressive title or years of experience to back it up. One person taking a chance on you can change the entire trajectory of your career
“I would kill for you.” “I would die for you.”
Yeah, well, I would heal for you. I’d unlearn my toxic patterns, face my wounds, and become a healthier person so my love doesn’t hurt you.
i luv being a multimillionaire, i can easily buy cars and mansions without it leaving a dent in my bank account n assets, i can book flights to tropical islands and southern france and vacay for as long as i need, i dance on yachts w my rich friends to good ass music, and i can walk into any store and get every single thing my heart desires
this life is remarkable for me!! i refused to settle for less, refused to have an average mediocre life. i get to have as many adventures and epic stories to tell as i wish for 💘💞💗💕
Become dangerously educated. Become a well-learned person. Harder to fool. Sharper in conversation. Better at reading situations. Able to draw on centuries of knowledge and wisdom. More informed. More interesting. More capable. Learn relentlessly. A well-lived, well-informed mind is very difficult to manipulate, intimidate or contain.

Fasting is not a way to manipulate God into giving you what you want. It is a discipline that helps you deny the flesh, seek God, hear His direction, and align your heart with His will.
If you are fasting and praying, don’t just go without food. Do these things:
1️⃣ 𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪 𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚
Have a clear prayer burden. Jesus said, “When you fast…” (Matthew 6:16). Fast intentionally, not merely because everyone else is doing it.
2️⃣ 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗕𝗜𝗡𝗘 𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗣𝗥𝗔𝗬𝗘𝗥
Fasting without seeking God can become nothing more than going hungry. Use the time you would normally spend eating to pray and seek the Lord.
3️⃣ 𝗙𝗘𝗘𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗦𝗣𝗜𝗥𝗜𝗧
Spend time in Scripture. “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” — Matthew 4:4
4️⃣ 𝗘𝗫𝗔𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗧
Isaiah 58 shows that God cares about how we live, treat others, and walk in righteousness—not merely whether we abstain from food.
5️⃣ 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗗𝗜𝗦𝗢𝗕𝗘𝗗𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘
You cannot deliberately hold onto what God is asking you to surrender and expect fasting to replace obedience. “To obey is better than sacrifice.” — 1 Samuel 15:22
6️⃣ 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗣𝗨𝗧 𝗚𝗢𝗗 𝗢𝗡 𝗔 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘𝗥
Fasting does not force God to answer according to your schedule. Sometimes the answer is yes, sometimes wait, sometimes God redirects the request.
7️⃣ 𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧 𝗨𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗟 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗚𝗡𝗘𝗗
The greatest result of fasting is not simply getting what you asked for—it is becoming more sensitive to God and more willing to obey Him.

Seek Him. Pray. Study His Word. Repent where necessary. Obey what He says. And trust Him with the outcome.
“Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.” — James 4:8 🙏🏽🔥
But beyond all the achievements, I pray that you are okay. That you are happy, safe, loved, held and surrounded by people who pour into you as much as you pour into everyone else. I pray that life is gentle with you.
i’m so lucky with money & success. everything i work for pays off, opportunities keep finding me & i always end up exactly where i’m meant to be. i keep getting richer, more successful & more secure. ⭐💌
I need to eat pasta in Italy, croissants in Paris, sushi in Japan, tacos in Mexico, kimchi in South Korea, curry in India, pho in Vietnam, oxtail in Jamaica, fondue in Switzerland & fish and chips in the UK. That’s when I’ll know I’ve made it 😭
Eclesiastés 11:4 dice que el que mira demasiado el viento nunca siembra, y el que mira las nubes nunca cosecha. No habla de imprudencia, habla de una forma de miedo disfrazada de prudencia. La verdad incómoda es que el momento perfecto no existe, es una excusa con buena reputación. Mientras lo esperás, la vida sigue pasando sin vos, y el tiempo que creías estar cuidando en realidad se te está escapando de las manos. La fe no es actuar sin pensar, es animarse a sembrar aunque el cielo siga nublado.
