If you show frustration or anger through: sighing, giving the silent treatment, or making sarcastic comments—this is a passive aggressive communication style.
You might say “I’m fine” when asked if you’re upset.
Here’s why 🧵:
told my therapist that i’ve lost a few friends since i started setting firm personal boundaries and she said,”it’s amazing how many people no longer find you useful when you’re harder to control” !!!!!!!!!!
happiness has no shortcuts. sometimes it’s a road that takes time to navigate through, a path with never ending obstacles, a route full of stop signs along the way, but when it finally reaches you, know that it was meant to find you. embrace the waves of goodness coming your way.

@condorhanson There’s a quote I often see attributed to African Americans struggle in the US, “Be grateful African Americans are seeking equality and not revenge,” and I think a lot of these white Christians fear reprisals for their years of bigotry and malice.
being confrontational has a bad reputation. as long as there is respect, there is nothing wrong with wanting to address an issue head-on so that no resentment or unaddressed contempt builds up. you threaten your own peace of mind by allowing feelings to fester without release.
"You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive."

I have to remind myself everyday, that I am not behind in life. I am young, I have time to become exactly who I want to be and there’s still room for growth in my life.
