Dear God,
I lost so much in the first six months of this year, and now I only have You to trust. As I enter this new month, please turn my losses into profit, my pain into joy, and my struggles into testimonies. Bless the work of my hands, open doors no one can shut, and let this month be filled with favor, breakthrough, peace, and restoration. May I end this month with reasons to smile and give You all the glory.
Amen. Happy New Month. π€

You cannot be friends with someone who is not in the same wavelength, mindset, or lifestyle as you. Friendship needs alignment.
People who have not attained a certain level of self-awareness or discipline will often become uncomfortable in the presence of someone who has.
No matter how much grace, compassion, or patience you extend to such people, they will eventually feel threatened by the parts of you that remind them of what they have not become.
Instead of being inspired, they become confronted by their own shortcomings. And when that happens, two things often occur:
They will try to pull you down to their level to justify their inadequacies, or slowly buildup envy and resentment towards you. This is why outgrowing people is sometimes necessary; not out of pride, but out of self-preservation.
just learned that "museum" comes from the Greek "mouseion" meaning "a temple or shrine of the Muses" and that is genuinely what a good museum feels like
