Announcement peeps!

Taking a break from social media (mainly my facebook page, youtube channel and instagram) for awhile. I have a lot of things to handle on my plate now, especially with work. I want to spend my time investing in what is important to me, working on what I need to do, and being intentional in building friendships in my life with the right people. I lack that, so I’m doing all I can to work toward that. Life is better shared together than if we experience it secondhand from a screen. We need authentic interaction and to be present in each other’s lives. It takes effort. I’m worth it. You’re worth that. Don’t settle for less than the authentic. Find those you can share life with, and truly live it.

“Everyone sees what you appear to be, few experience what you really are.” - Niccolo Machiavelli 

I am attracted to laughter.

If someone smiles often, thinks positively, and can enjoy the small things in life; I am naturally enticed with who they are. I admire someone who can put their cynical and pessimistic thoughts aside and bear through with a sense of humour.
To me, that is everything. I think I’d fall in love with a compassionate person who can laugh through their own tears.

Happy May everyone!

I really do like how I came on here everyday last month (April) to just write a post, an extract on how I feel that day and what I wanted to share. Got tonnes of positive feedback and I liked doing that, hence I will continue the challenge this month :)

I wish I had a window seat with lots of pillows that i could sit in and drink tea and read books in and watch the rain in.

Wow people! Can't believed today is the last day of April! This month's challenge = successfully completed :) YAYS. Here's a final piece of writing to wrap this month up:

I noticed that a lot of queer kids feel like they have to tell their friends and family that they're queer. Even if they'll be rejected. I want to remind you all that nobody is entitled to knowing your romantic, sexual or gender orientations. Nobody. You have no moral obligation to share that information if you are not comfortable with doing so.

You are not “lying” by not telling people or “hiding” because it's honestly no one's business but your own.

You come out on your own terms when you feel safe and comfortable doing so!!
Or you can come out to a few trusted people if you want before telling a larger group!

Don't feel like you owe that information to anyone ok??

Say no to nostalgia, it will ruin your life and fuck up your limbs so you are immobile forever. You don’t have to remember everything, in fact I strongly suggest you don’t remember everything.

I want to be unafraid. 
I want to be full of light and love and kindness. 
I want to go on adventures and rejoice in the beauty of living.

"Maybe I'm just hard to love."

For all the people who are in a relationship :)

Being in a relationship should send shocks through your body. It should be healthy, nourishing, mutually beneficial. It should set a fire in your soul, make you want to do better, make you want to see the other person succeed no matter the cost. Being in a relationship shouldn’t be draining, shouldn’t make you feel any less of yourself or of your worth. Being in a relationship should be a constant positive, even through your struggles. You shouldn’t have to fight for attention, you shouldn’t have to go out of your way to make your significant other care. A toxic relationship can easily be confused for a healthy relationship, so constantly remind yourself of your worth and stick to it.

And at the end of the day that’s all we were.

I was just a person and he was just a person.

We were just two people who among all the strangers took comfort in the fact that someone might know us better than we knew ourselves.
