Jesus: I want to walk through this with you.
Me, full of doubt and fear: But what if this isn’t something that ends? What if this is something I can never walk THROUGH?
Jesus: Then we will just keep walking.
Ladies, please normalize being high maintenance. Keep your standards high, expect people to climb to reach them. Tell them that yes, you do plan on spending your money, your time, and your energy on yourself first. Unabashedly tell people “no” with no explanation. When they ask you “who do you think you are” tell them that you’re you. And that is enough.
May your spirit be refreshed
May your mind be renewed
May your soul be recharged
May your inner-power be refueled
May your worries be relieved
May your past be redeemed
May your boundaries be respected
May your kindness be reflected
May your life be relaxed and always rewarding
you don’t have to be happy all the time to be a hero. you don’t always have to be kind and forgiving, you don’t have to push yourself to be positive. allow yourself to feel and deal with emotions even if they’re “bad”. allow yourself to learn and grow from how you feel.
it feels so good to be kind. it’s the warm feeling you get when you tell someone that they look nice today, or that they did a good job, or that their voice sounds lovely, or that the cookies they baked were delicious, or how you always laugh at their jokes. it’s the warm feeling you get when they respond bashfully, or surprised, with that small smile and a thankfulness that shines in their eyes. it feels so good when someone is kind to you. when it feels like the effort you put into yourself is seen and acknowledged and appreciated. it feels so good when you’re able to make someone feel that wonderful. we should always try and encourage each other.
