Friendly reminder: Jesus didn't warn us about LGBTQIA+ or atheists. He warned us about religious people who love power more than truth.
I hope this rings a bell.
Do not borrow shame from the past. You are not that person anymore and you simply didn't know better. No reason to beat yourself up for it.
All you can do is really do better.
saw a quote that said, “anger is the part of you that loves you the most. it shows up when you're being mistreated, ignored or disrespected. it's a signal - calling you to step away from what's harming you.
whether it's a room, a job, a relationship or an old version of yourself, anger let's you know when it's time to walk away. if you learn to listen to it, to trust it and make it your ally, it won’t need to shout so loudly."
My favorite part of this whole thing was the discourse that followed about whether I’m actually emotionally unstable or just a really good actor (I’m both)
I could never handle living in a minimalist space. where would I store my gadgets and gizmos aplenty? my whosits and whatsits galore? what about all twenty of my thingamabobs? it’s simply not realistic.
