You’d never know though because traumatic feelings are too heavy for people to handle or understand so making up lies in order to protect yourself unfortunately becomes the norm. It’s not personal, just the only way survival feels possible.
A man who "only has eyes for you" is a form of spiritual protection you didn't know you needed. Because a man with a wandering gaze will drive you to doubt your radiance, and slowly steal your peace and softness. Loyalty is a love language, but it's also a covering.
I don’t want my daughter to be like me. I want her to speak up sooner. Walk away faster. Trust herself deeper. Apologize less. Take up more space. Ask bigger questions. Dream louder. And if that means she becomes everything I wasnt… GOOD!
i think it's important to have something to look forward to every day or every week, so when life drains you, it’ll help you to remember that you need to keep going a little longer because there's something waiting for you at the end of the week that might make you smile again.
