Abundance surrounds me 💫

[Esther Hicks @AbrahamHicks]

When you ask, it is given, every single time, no exceptions. You are beloved, blessed Beings who deserve good things - but it takes a self-convincing before you will allow good things.

You should look back on your embarrassing past selves with an urge to wrap them up in the most comforting hug imaginable, not with condescending resentment

[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

Barack: You told me all those years ago that you couldn’t promise me the world, but you could promise me an interesting life. Of course, you outdid yourself and managed to give me both.

Eight years in the crucible, and not once did you melt from the heat. Not once did you let it harden you. Instead, you used it to reveal your truest essence: your stubborn optimism and unflinching courage, your dazzling brilliance and unpretentious decency, your ferocious work ethic and absolutely unshakable moral fiber.

“Blaming one’s environment and disclaiming responsibility isn’t a new fad. Psychoanalytic theory calls this a form of externalization, a defense mechanism that relieves its users of the need to look within”

Pause for a moment
and take a deep breath.

Feel the life force
flowing within you.

It’s the same force that flows
through the trees, the rivers
and the stars.

It flows through me
and it flows through you.

We are all in this together.
You are not alone. ♥️

Trust your gut feelings. You are being guided.

[Celestara @celestaracosmos]

Your interests and passions are not random. They are connected to your purpose.

The iconic image of a mother and child, a ubiquitous feature of many black households in South Africa during the 1970s to 1990s. The artist behind this poignant photograph remains unknown, yet its impact endures.

Don’t forget to overthink the best case scenario too.

The depth of this 🤏🏽 “ There is something deeply liberating about not needing constant validation from rooms, seating plans and optics.” 🌸

[@luphumlongcayisa @luphumlongcayis]

I wish more people cared less about being seated in the VIP section. I wish more people cared less about being at the so-called main table within the VIP section. I wish more people moved through life with a little less obsession over hierarchy, proximity to power and symbolic status.

None of these things matter as much as people think they do. A seat does not affirm your worth. A table does not enlarge your importance. A tag around your neck or wrist does not elevate your humanity.

What matters is what lies within the depths of your soul. What matters is your character. What matters is your ability to sit comfortably amongst ordinary people without feeling diminished. What matters is ability to engage everyone with the same warmth, dignity and respect regardless of title, bank balance or social standing.

Some of the most remarkable people I have encountered carry themselves with ease. that comes with no performance, no entitlement and no desperation to be seen. They understand that self-worth is internal and it does not collapse because you were seated three tables away from perceived importance.

There is something deeply liberating about not needing constant validation from rooms, seating plans and optics. To know who you are, regardless of where you are seated, is a gift. A marvellous gift.

I love the sudden realization that I don’t have to put up with a single thing I don’t like

[Your Best Version @YourPrimePath]

Major cheat code in life: Understanding you can reinvent yourself at any time. New habits, new standards, new friend group, new career, etc. There's no rule that says you have to stay the person you've always been. You're allowed to decide––"I'm done being this version of me."

[Sabelo ka Lindamkhonto vi @SabzerAzoh]

School can shape the mind, but it often standardises thinking and rewards memorisation over understanding, like a system designed to produce uniform minds for economic use. When education is driven by money, it trains people to earn, not to think deeply or live with purpose. A complete human being is not formed there. Family, elders, and community shape behaviour, discipline, and values. That is where wisdom grows not in what is repeated, but in how one lives. True education is not only taught it is lived.
