be strong.

Sometimes you’re not gonna have support from anyone. Keep going anyway. You’re strong enough to make it.

Look:

The right people will get it.
The right people will see you and appreciate you for the person that you are.
The right people won’t require you to dilute, censor, or edit yourself in order to be worthy of their time and affection.

You don’t need to waste your time on people who are committed to misunderstanding you.

Self-care

- enjoy a long, hot shower after an exhausting day
- avoid or cut toxic people out of your life
- have a nice, lengthy nap to rejuvenate
- go on a sky watching or star gazing
- take a break and unplug on social media
- unfriend/mute toxic people on the internet
- go for a walk or a jog on the park
- reconnect with your good old friends
- take your dog/pet for a walk
- enjoy the sun for a couple of minutes
- do a random act of kindness
- have a quick movie marathon
- try to do something that you used to love
- listen to your favorite songs when you were a kid
- artist or not, try painting your feelings
- for a day, try de-cluttering your thoughts and stop overthinking
- go on a window shopping (even without buying anything)  

still care

I still care and I still wonder if you’re doing well and it’s so frustrating because it’s no longer my place to ask, or even to know. But I always wish you the best and I hope that you’re taking care of yourself. I hope you’ve found things that make you happy and I hope you’ve figured out your purpose in life.. I just hope that you’re happy. 

you either evolve or repeat old patterns.

surround yourself with people who make you want to do better. those who meet you halfway and teach you healthier ways to share space. it’s rare that you find good people, honor that occurrence. don’t let your ego sabotage these connections. you either evolve or repeat old patterns.

the real advice.

To be honest, the real advice I’d give to anyone is, do sh*t alone. Go to a museum and go at your own pace and leave the instant you’re done. Go somewhere you’ve never been and just wander around, duck into and out of places as it pleases you. Linger as long as you’d like.

keep going

It's kind of cool to think how someone somewhere is having the best day of their life today. Someone’s hearing “i love you” for the first time today.
Someone’s gonna meet the love of their life today.
Someone’s gonna get the job of their dreams today.

It’s someone’s best day today. And guess what bish? Tomorrow it could be your best day so keep going!

forgive yourself.

forgive yourself.

Whether you fail a test, eat too many cookies, say the wrong thing, fail a class, or spend a whole day in bed — learn to forgive yourself. The next day will be better. The next day will be a day closer to your next success. 

You can do it.

Friendly reminder.

Without failing at one thing, there won’t be an opportunity to try again, learn, and grow. Life isn’t static but dynamic. Learn to embrace whatever situation you may face and strive to overcome. Believe in yourself, knowing your best is yet to come.
