One of the hardest things is realizing that the voice standing in the way of your healing is sometimes your own, especially when you’re trying to love yourself more deeply.
a hard pill to swallow (but a good one) is sometimes we didn't hold as much weight in someone's life as we thought & it's completely okay. someone's inability to appreciate you doesn't decrease your value in any way, shape, or form.
Do not let people gaslight you into thinking that duality does not exist. You can be grateful and annoyed. You can want more and be grateful for what you have. You can be angry and frustrated and still be grateful. A lot of religious and spiritual gaslighting out here.
