My sis called me & said she needed a model on her new journey in the photography world , I said bet! RAW & UNEDITED ! I love this picture so much I didn’t want it to be touched 🖤
The quickest way to lose me is to make me feel like I don’t matter. I don’t expect perfection from anybody, but I do pay attention to effort, consistency, and how people treat me over time. Once I start noticing that I’m always the one reaching out, always the one understanding, or always the one showing up, I take a step back. I don’t beg people to value me and I don’t compete for a place in anybody’s life. If somebody shows me where I stand, I believe it. And once I accept that, I move accordingly. Some things don’t need an argument, they just need distance.
This is a sign to leave our super-understanding era because sometimes people just take advantage of the kindness that we are giving. I'm so done with being okay with what they are doing and feeling sorry for myself afterward.
I’m at a point in my life where as long as I know I did right by you, I’m okay with walking away when something no longer works. I used to hold on longer than I should’ve because I cared, because of history, or because I wanted things to work out. But I’ve learned you can’t keep carrying relationships by yourself. If I showed up, kept it real, and did my part, that’s enough for me. Whether it’s family, friends, whoever, I don’t force what’s no longer mutual. I just leave it where it’s at and keep moving.
