at a stage in my life where peace is more important than anyone's presence. if it isn't flowing i'm not going to force it until it does, if it isn't giving me clarity i'm not going to deceive myself to clear up smoke, accepting what is by what i'm shown and how the energy feels.
I'm really no longer interested in softening my rough edges for anyone. The world is literally spiraling and ya'll worried about if someone thinks you are too forward, too earnest or too blunt. I lost so many years trying to make losers feel comfortable.
Normalize not forcing your importance in someone's life. Let people do what they want so you can see what they'd rather do. If someone doesn't see the value in having you by their side, don’t try to convince them.
