My therapist told me that
"There's a theory that depression is sometimes the soul's way of rejecting the life you're forcing yourself to live. It's not failure it's misalignment. Your spirit shuts down when you're too far from your purpose, people, or path." And then it all made sense.
My therapist told me, "When a woman grows up feeling unseen, she learns to love by overgiving. She pours into everyone else, hoping that one day someone will finally pour back into her. She becomes the caretaker, the fixer, the one who shows up even when no one shows up for her. And the hardest part? Deep down, she's not trying to be strong. She's just waiting for someone to do for her what she's spent her whole life doing for everyone else."
someone once told me “emotional intelligence is the discipline of sitting with a feeling long enough to understand it before you hand it to someone else” and that honestly changed how i move.
Sophrosyne (pronounced suh-fros-uh-nee) is an ancient Greek virtue meaning soundness of mind, moderation, and self-control. It represents a deep inner harmony where desires and actions are balanced by wisdom, and stands in direct contrast to hubris.
the best revenge is becoming the fullest version of yourself. not for their validation, not for anyone’s applause but for you. keep your heart pure and your energy sacred, the echo in your intentions will return back to you eventually.
Carl Jung said "Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible."
