Y’all wasn’t crying “DEI” when Black people were…
working y’all farms
raising y’all children
building the White House and the U.S. Capitol
building railroads
…and making America the leading economy in the world
I PRAY that GOD REMOVES everyone in your life who secretly gossips about you, puts you down, doesn't want to see you win and REPLACE them with people who genuinely support you and want to see you happy and blessed. Greater is coming! 🙏🏼
May you discover people with the spiritual and emotional capacity to be safe, fertile ground for your truth.
May your healing yield a harvest that exceeds your expectations.
Children of narcissistic mothers tend to be people pleasers who perform or achieve for love. They were never loved for who they were. They were only loved for how they made their mother feel.
PLEASE RETWEET FOR AWARENESS.
I’m so glad you pushed past the old stories, lies, assumptions, and myths to give yourself the freedom to turn the page and live in truth.
Clarity looks good on you.
Prayer was the bond that kept the apostles and the believers of the Early Church together. They spent much time praying in one another’s houses – praying for strength and encouragement to remain steadfast in their faith in Christ.
You are someone's favorite person. The way you laugh.
Your kind heart. Your sense of humor. The way you make problems melt away with a loving hug or a shoulder to cry on. And it's tough to remember that sometimes. But it is true. You are appreciated for simply being you. Hug yourself tight! You're crushing life!!
Resolutions for an emotionally healthy 2025:
1. I work on my emotional reactivity. I’ll pause before I habitually react. I’ll notice how confident this makes me.
2. I won’t over-explain. If I’m misunderstood, that’s ok. Being misunderstood is natural part of life— not a personal rejection.
3. I will stop asking for input from everyone before making decisions. I’ll get in touch with the quiet inner voice within that will never guide me wrong.
4. I will never match anyone else’s energy. I’ll practice behaving in ways that I’m proud of even when others are lower versions of themselves.
5. I will stop gaslighting myself. I don’t need to focus on the positive or tell myself other people have it worse. I’ll acknowledge it’s painful and that my feelings are valid— emotions fade when we stop trying to change them.
6. I will stop making choices for my parent’s approval. My life is for me and this will free me from resenting them.
7. When someone is rude to me, I will realize they’re fighting an inner battle. I don’t fight battles that aren’t my own.
8. I will stop trying to fix other people while I neglect myself in the process. Non-intervention is a form of love.
9. I’ll find time for creativity, play, and just existing. I’ll get more time in nature and in the sun. Then, I’ll notice how my mind gets more quiet.
10. I will express gratitude for the people in my life that make me feel seen and safe, on a regular basis. I’ll pour emotional energy into these people just as they’ve done for me.
To see a person who supposedly cares about you defend someone who has traumatized you is crazy-making. It’s normalizing toxic behavior while telling the hurt person their pain isn’t real. You’re not crazy. You’re trying to heal among crazy-makers.
May you discover being gracious doesn’t always mean continuing to grant access.
May you free yourself to close doors that need to be closed.
Show yourself grace by shifting.
