promise yourself. to stress less and smile more. to have strength and courage to venture outside of your comfort zone. to leave your past behind you and appreciate this moment. most importantly, promise yourself to always live a life you truly want to live.
the other person may not change by you speaking up. but you speaking up ignites a spark inside you that will grow until you no longer allow them to mistreat you. the speaking up is for YOU.
connecting with someone & not playing games, being direct, laying out your intentions, having no hidden agenda, only genuine love in getting to know them as a person reciprocating it, is the biggest flex against all the toxic shit in the world.
i would just like to say fuck you to everyone who made me feel inadequate growing up and ruining my self esteem for years. you all suck and i'm glad i don't talk to any of you any more.
sharing how you feel and what's real for you may be scary. but every time you hold back truth, you make fear more important than love. this is why the depth of your ability to love will always be mirrored by your ability to be honest. it's really as simple as that.
let's be honest, everyone wanted to looks good on social media. let everyone do anything that makes them happy as long as it didn't harmful and offense other. like dude, why so salty?
