I just saw a quote that said, “You worry too much for someone who figures it out every time” and I feel like I’m not the only one who needs to hear that.
i am so protective over this current version of me. it took a lot of mental, emotional, and spiritual work for me to get to this stage. so if i come off as if i'm too good for certain people, situations, events, conversations, whatever…it's because at this point in my life i am.
one thing i have decided for myself is that i do not owe my presence to any space that has shown me it does not value me. dismissed, harmed, invalidated. i remember all of it and i move accordingly.
A big lesson I learned about love later in life is that we just can’t make a relationship work with someone who doesn’t have the capacity to self-reflect and understand what patterns they need to work on in order to make their relationship loving and peaceful.
You promised yourself you was going to move different this year. Don’t forget that. Don’t let old habits, old situations, or old patterns pull you back into the same stuff you said you was done with. Stay locked in on what you said you wanted and stand on it.
