Its interesting to think that we learned everything we do or know, yet we live like we knew it all...

@omotomilola She started at 2 with supervisor, now she is 5 and does it unsupervised.

let me be clear when I say this, VINEGAR DOES NOT KILL GERMS OR BACTERIA PERTAINING TO FOOD. Heat does. please invest in a digital food thermometer and cook food to their appropriate temperature. Vinegar breaks down ionic bonds in food. it changes the texture.

people think depression means your sad and crying all the time. depression for me is being stuck in a twilight zone. i can't think , i don't respond to things , nothing is interesting , i just feel empty. not sad , just blank. i have a lot of days like this and they are hard .

Emotions are data, not directives. Learning to decode them, instead of instinctively acting on them, WILL save your life.

you can still make a beautiful life for yourself even if you feel like you've lost many years to grief and sadness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes it’s tempting to buy into the myth that toddlers are agents of chaos.

But they aren’t.

Sure, they dump things out.

And knock things down.

They sometimes throw food on the floor.

But these behaviors aren’t mischief (or, misbehaviors to be punished into extinction). They’re experiments…

When your baby drops objects from their height chair, they’re learning about gravity.

When they knock over a block tower, they’re learning cause and effect.

These playful actions test their growing understandings about the world.

So, to the extent practical, embrace and acknowledge them as what they are: learning opportunities.

This little one and her mom (shared to TT by ourgallagherlife) have embraced this ethic - with a two player game in which mom races to create a tower from stacking cups before baby can knock it down.

It’s a perfect division of labor. Baby doesn’t have the fine motor skills to create the tower just yet. But there’s a part she can play and a lesson about the world to be reinforced! What fun.

It’s amazing how our perspectives can change when we see the world through our toddler’s eyes.

being annoyed is the price you pay for community.

it means having guests when you'd rather be alone. it means letting someone live with you even when they get on your nerves. it means showing up for events that you'd rather not go to. it means turning the other cheek.

Friendship means A LOT to me. It's beyond this BS you people do and say on social media.

“You don't owe friends any explanation”
My dear, you owe me lmao. If you're not accountable, you may as well stay away from me. I don't do friendship for the gram, meaningful friendships >>>

my therapist told me, "stop assuming people are mad at you. Stop attempting to read people's minds. stop trying to manage the thoughts and emotions of others. let people be in charge of themselves. if they have something to say to you they will and if they don't it is their responsibility not yours. overthinking kills happiness" and that hit me like a brick.

[COCO @TWOTIMESABITCH]

my therapist once said "people don't abandon the people they love, they abandon the people they're using" and that was all the closure i needed

[Kevwe @kevwe_od]

I wish people understood that how they behave after they’ve fucked up is sometimes more important than the fuck up itself.

@YarKafanchan 2/2 Add more onions. If you don't like cooking for too long, you can break meals down, like batch cook meat (save in portions) this helps reduce "cook time"

[chinwe @chielectra]

@YarKafanchan Build flavor. Don't add water at the beginning. Use low heat or marinate your protein first. Use fresh produce and herbs as much as possible. 1/2
