THE INTERNET IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. it’s not your diary. it’s not a safe space. it is an illusion. it is a vehicle for communication, education and promotion. everything else is oversharing and unnecessary.

ddg is too talkative of a nigga. that’s a real liability to a woman like halle. i haven’t seen her speak out about the split publicly yet, but i’ve heard like 5 different interviews from this dude in the last 3 days. too chatty, too catty.

it’s embarrassing until you heal from it. and then you simply raise the bar for what’s required to access you. and then you keep that boundary. and then you love again.
It’s lowkey embarrassing thinking about how much you poured into people who lacked empathy and never liked you .

the 6 C’s of every healthy relationship:. • communication. • comprehension. • consideration. • compassion. • consistency. • conflict resolution. once one is missing, things begin to feel off balance. always prioritize the 6 C’s.

the wildest realization i came to this year is that some people actually don’t want to grow. they can perform healing, but when face to face with the uncomfortability of the work, they’ll run every time. all caterpillars don’t become butterflies. some fear the chrysalis too much.

forgiving myself for staying in spaces past the expiration date, past the reciprocity of care, past the display of compassion. love should make you want to try, but not at the expense of your own intuition.

pro tip: give yourself the first hour of the day. unplugged, doing something that only you benefit from. gym, cleaning, reading, meditating, praying— anything for you. get up an hr earlier if you have to. because taking care of you makes it so much easier to take care of others.
