Party Ready
Timothy Walter is struggling. A white v-neck that once fit perfectly now feels suffocating, echoing the anxiety that grips him. With his heart pounding and sweat forming, he contemplates bailing on a party heās dreading. The reason? His ex-boyfriend, Devin, and Devinās new flame, Jonah, are likely to be there, and Tim isn't ready to face them.
His roommate, Max, offers a lifeline: a quick appearance and an early exit. Hesitant but desperate for a distraction, Tim agrees, though he needs Maxās help to even choose an outfit. With Maxās support, Tim finds the courage to step out the door.
"Heartstrings and Party Scenes" is a poignant tale of navigating love, loss, and the small acts of friendship that help us through our toughest moments.

Saying No sometimes can be difficult. But the pain associated with it is far less than the pain you endure when you tag along.

Todayās Cards of The Day brings two messages! One - itās Twin Flame Friday! - Twin Journey check-in. And Two- itās a more personal message for the collection. Please take what resonates and leave what does not. The cards used are Light Seerās Tarot by Chris-Anne and The Soul Reflectionās Manifesting Love by Nadine Swiger. . One: for those on a Twin Flame journey - today's draw is a good sign. Itās filled with hope for moving forward. There has been a lot of shadow work done, and now itās about fine-tuning inner balance before coming forward. Your person is working on his or her courage. As Twins mirror one another, you are being guided to work on building your courage as well. Things are moving in the background and soon you will witness this forward movement in your connection. If you look at the man riding on top of the chariot, you see him staring off with excitement and love. Iām hearing he is ākeeping his eye on the prize (you!)ā and will soon find his way to you. (this could be her coming to him too. Place that how it fits). They are building that courage to finally tell your Twin how you truly feel. . Two: Your guides are encouraging you to find your courage so you can move forward. You see the black and white horse on the chariot - Iām picking up on them representing balance in your life. Itās about balancing the light and shadows within your Soul (the good and negative thoughts). We need both to help us move forward and grow. Pushing through any insecurities or self-doubt will help you find hope, love, and abundance in the future. If you can embrace and work through your shadows, you can find your courage and move forward again. You got this! . . #cardsofthedayš® #dailyoraclecardreading #tarotoracleoftheday #twinflamefriday #findingbalanceinlife #movibgforward #movingtowardslove #twinflamereading #movingtowardssuccess #collectivereading #findingcourage #movementinlove #lightseerstarot #chrisanne #tarotdeck #lightseerstarotdeck #lightworkertarot #manifestingloveš #manifestingloveoracle #soulreflectionoracle #nadineswiger #soulreflectionoraclecards #twinflames #twinflameoracle #twinflamereadingš® https://www.instagram.com/p/CcX5Ns7u_Bs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

for everyone not quite where they want to be or where they had hoped to be at this point in their life: have courage & run for it ā¢ ā¢ ā¢ everyday I tell myself to just start where I am, and by doing that, I think I have actually come a long way. I have taken senior photos, engagement photos, and Christmas photos. I have managed to capture some really unique and beautiful images all while slowly putting together a foundation for my brand. š I guess I'm somewhat proud of myself tonight, haha š¤·š¼āāļø ā¢ ā¢ ā¢ #makingthismyyear #findingcourage #morganharpernichols @morganharpernichols @pabitelwanderer #pabitelwandererphotography

November is adoption awareness month. I love this illustration of the little labradoodle staring out the window at his family wondering if they will love him even though he is small and cant do all the things his siblings can do. I have heard from a number of parents how the insecurity and adoption story of this dog is similar to what their family went through. They have used the book to open discussions and the kids really identify with the little labradoodle. #adoptionawarenessmonth, #adoption, #fostering, #thelittlelabradoodle, #puppypickupday, #findingcourage, #labradoodle, #labradoodles, #doodlesoftheworld, #labradoodlesofinsta, #puppylove, #raiseareader, #childrensbooks, #picturebooks, #kidlit, #kidlitart https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp2qb3MH2Dk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jsxybyf8uz2y

May 16th Guidance...The Moon is in Gemini and communication about our feelings is vital now. It may be that we are just having a conversation in our head thinking over possibilities for our life. We may seek counsel from a good friend or family member. Today is a day of questioning and then decisions are made. We follow our gut and somehow today we know for certain the right thing to do in a situation. For some time we have known the steps that needed to be taken but we put action on the back burner. Perhaps we were filled with fear or dread about dealing with a certain person and situation. Difficult people who are codependent with us may have held us down and now we have the courage to break that energy and move forward. We may know in our heart that they need to do certain things in their life to gain independence and allow us to have more freedom and happiness. Today we begin to fit the pieces of the puzzle together and form something beautiful from it. Relationships are highlighted today. The words āOk, the time has come to speak directly about the problemā these are the words I am hearing. Form plans and bring forth independence. The Universe is saying let go of guilt and people pleasing. It has not brought you happiness and joy. The exhaustion you feel with the situation is a sign change needs to take place. Back away from codependent behavior which has not served you correctly. Take your steps to get back your happiness and independence. Make important decisions and move forward. If these words speak to your heart then this is my gift to you. This can be a pivotal day to change direction in life. Use this energy to bring about closure in a situation that has brought frustration and unhappiness. A new path awaits...God bless you on your journey..Be happy. #dailydosefromdebra #intuitiveguidance #angelicwisdom #astrointuitive #fittingthepiecestogether #codependency #findingcourage#conversation#gemini#moon

Finding Motivation
My brain has been blocked lately. Ā Maybe as classes are winding down, my head is enjoying the temporary rest. Ā But itās frustrating because thereās so much to do and yet so little motivation to do it. I awake early each day with so much energy and good intentions. Ā But around noon or one, I find myself unable to do much more than what is required. Sometimes I can trick myself into pushing through the fatigue. Ā Otherwise, the dreariness outside starts to creep inward and I canāt fight it. Ā The only thing Iāve faithfully committed to is exerciseā¦which Iām quickly countering with overeating. Ā
There seems to be a looming fog over me currently and could be the result of so many things. Ā My birthday is in exactly one week and Iām feeling troubled about it. Come the end of the month, I must have some other work lined up, and seem to be getting nowhere in terms of locking something down. Ā Plus, thereās a never-ending list of things to do. Ā But few of them have set deadlines, so each day I seemingly find a way to justify not completing them.
Thereās also everything stirring on the emotional level. Ā As my time is starting to free up, the quiet evenings at home leave me pondering many thingsā¦too many things. Ā Itās been a busy couple of weeks with several ups and downs. Ā The possibility of a new job, then getting that job, followed by deciding to give someone romantically a chance, only to find out heās having a baby. This all cherry-topped with meeting my friendās new baby, bringing about a whole series of mixed emotions.
While Iām trying to be kind to myself, give myself some space and time, I also know too well how easy it is to venture into a depression. Ā Depression runs rampant on both sides of my family, thus leaving me susceptible to it as well. Ā Several times Iāve hit that point but have always been able to seek help. Unfortunately, due to my very bad health coverage, seeing a therapist isnāt an option currently. Ā
But sometimes, we have to take matters into our own hands. Ā I am a big believer that at times we are helpless and must seek professional assistance and even medication. Ā However, I do know there are other times when we have all the tools we need to solve the problem ourselves.
In many ways, it reminds me of dieting. Ā I love, love, love sweets. Ā If any cookies enter my home, I will eat all of them within two days. Ā No joke. Ā I have no will power when it comes to sugarā¦even though itās beet sugar. Honestly, food in general is a weak point for me. Ā So, in order to take control of what I put in my body and how much, I must approach it in a disciplined manner. Ā When I set clear goals and boundaries, I have no problems following through. Ā But when the lines are blurred, chaos ensues. Itās the same thing, for me, in all other areas of my life as well. Ā I thrive with discipline.
So, last night I came up with a plan. Ā To me, starting with ātomorrowā is unproductive, when I could start with ānow.ā Ā Therefore, my first step began last night with making sure I was in bed quite early, guaranteeing myself a good nightās sleep. Ā Then today, I will do my usual exercise routine, shower, then head to a coffee shop. Ā At home Iām distracted, so I must get away. Ā Once there, Iām going to begin a plan to encompass all things: eating, scheduling, and goals. Ā
Sometimes we must take control of our life. Sometimes we must force ourselves to step up. Ā Sometimes we must believe itās possibleā¦because, truth be told, it is. No time for waiting. Ā No time for sitting. Ā The time for action is now. Ā Iām going to solve this problem before me. Ā One step at a time. Ā Give me a cape and a tiara, and watch me go.

williamsvillewellnessYou may be wondering- why does Courage matter in recovery? Well, it takes a courage to even get clean and sober in the first place, and a strong person to remain sober. Courage is required in our journey to become a better person. It means having the guts to keep going, even in spite of fear or hardship. * "I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you now you're licked before you even begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what." -Harper Lee * #addictionrecovery #courage #strength#courageinrecovery #sobervirginia#recovery #rehabvirginia #recoveryvirginia#rehab #sober #findingcourage#couragetogetsober

Tomorrow....
I start my journey to a healthier me by kick starting it with Isagenix. I'm nervous anxious but most importantly excited. I know I'm seriously overweight (over 100lbs but not sharing my weight just yet I'm not comfortable). So here's a little back story....Three and half years ago I just graduated with my BS degree in education and down 25 pounds and kicking butt with a healthier lifestyle. Now I have that 25 pounds plus some put back on in the past 3.5 years. It didn't happen overnight it happened in those three and half years but those pounds represent baggage and all the shit that's happened in that three years. I'm not going to divulge much detail but pretty much I graduated was on top of the world with pounds dropped, my depression under control (because I believe when you have depression you never are completely free of it/cured but have coping mechanism and are very self aware of whats happening and your reactions) and was breaking free of issues and crappy things that happened in my childhood. One month after my graduation from college my brother was getting married and I was so happy. However that same week that he got married my life cane crashing down. My parents were splitting up and one of them walked out on all of my sibilings and I life. Then things starting to come out and my issues from childhood reappeared and I lost/forgot my coping mechanism. During this time I was also coming to understand and accept myself and sexuality which in college I thought I was comfortable with but not out to any one yet. Being back home I realize now that the environment wasn't healthy for positive mental health. I fell into a vortex of self hate, loath and medicating with food and sleep. Over the course of 2016 I've been so unhappy and my depression, anxiety and panic attacks are getting really really bad and the last month any pictures of me or mirror looks I'm flat out disgusted with what I see and feel. I dont know where this courageous voice come from but I told myself there's no way your going to go back to cutting and what will suicide get you do something now before it's to late. I'm trying I'm fighting I need me back. Oh also today I'm saying fuck you don't listen to your anxiety and faced some serious fears and called a driving school and scheduled my first driving lesson which by 25 and where I live I should've done when I was younger but it's better late than never. Here's to getting healthy facing driving fears and becoming more independent and hopefully breaking free of my job I hate because of the place I work for not what I actually do.
