#Resiliance

Be a loner....

🌱 In solitude, the loner discovers resilience. There’s strength in standing alone, rooted like an ancient tree. The storms may rage, but the loner remains—an embodiment of quiet strength.

So, my fellow wanderer, embrace your solitude. Let it be your canvas, your sanctuary, your compass. For in the quietude, you’ll find whispers of wisdom and the magic of self-discovery. 🌟

Alright y'all, 47 has officially been sworn in. That means it's time to hold the fuck on for whatever comes next. Finding safe community is going to be incredibly important in the next 4 years. Using your privilege as much as possible to shield those who don't have it is going to matter. If you are going to communicate, make sure you're being smart. Facebook, Instagram, text, phone calls, even Tumblr, these are not safe spaces to organize action. Not even in "subtle" terms.

I'm not going to waste my breath on the negative. We all know what might be coming. We all know it's about to get bad, we all know it's about to get scary. Please remember to keep loving. Keep laughing. Find light and joy and love in every moment you possibly can. Do NOT let them rob you of yourself. If you ever need a space to come lay down the weight, this blog is a safe place to do so. It's going to be hard to spend 4 years marching forward. Almost impossibly so at times. So let yourself breathe when you need to. Take time for yourself.

Do not do their work for them. They want to reap destruction? Let them fucking fight for every last second of it.

Healing is layers. Healing is time. Healing is excruciating. Once you think it’s done, it’s not.

Always ask the question.

1. "I can get through this."

Emotional resilience is associated with mental toughness. There is an understanding that we have to be strong and overcome adversity without letting it break us.

2. "Even though I was a victim in this situation, I won't let it define me or ruin my future."

Being resilient means that when you experience the pain of mistreatment, you shift your perspective from "I'm a victim and powerless to help myself" to "How can I grow from this?"

3. “I won't always be happy with how things play out. But it's part of the journey."

Resilience is associated with a basic acceptance that life isn't always fair, and that we all experience emotional hardships. Accepting this truth helps people to not take things as personally when undesirable events happen.

4. "This, too, shall pass."

Resilient people believe that setbacks and challenges can feel horrible in the moment, but that nothing in life is permanent. It doesn't mean that the pain will go away entirely, but it does mean that we can work to make them less traumatic and damaging to us over time.

5. "What can I learn from this?"

Openness to experiences and the ability to shift your perspective from "Why did this happen to me?" to "What can I take from this to help me grow?" can help you better navigate through life's inevitable ups and downs.

6. “I'm feeling a strong emotion, so I'm going to take a moment and pause before I respond or make any big decisions."

A key component of resilience is emotional flexibility, or the ability to regulate your feelings and reduce their intensity in a given situation. Mastery over this can help us feel empowered during challenging times.

7. "I still have things to be grateful for."

We're hardwired to notice threats to our well-being. But people who are resilient find a way to turn towards the positive, even in times of difficulty.

8. "I have to see reality for what it is, even if it's not what I want, so I can move forward."

The key to resilience is not denying reality or seeking out a reason that makes us feel better about why something happened. When we arrive at a place of radical acceptance, the situation has less power over us.

9. "I'm letting this go."

Staying mired in resentment, wanting retribution, or focusing on payback keeps us holding on to past pain. Developing resilience requires getting to a place where we can see difficult life circumstances for what they are and actively choosing to let them go.

Embracing resilience and hope: Discovering the transformative power of 'It's Never Too Late' and 'It's Possibly Too Late' during seasons of profound loss.

Hey. Your brain needs to de-frag. Literally it needs you to sit there and space out.

If you want your memory or executive function to improve, stare out a window at the skyline or sidewalk or trees or birds on the electrical wires for like 20+ minutes per day. (With no other stimulation like a podcast or TV if you can manage but hey baby steps innit). If you're fortunate enough to have safe outside with any bits of nature, go stare closely at a 1 meter square of grass and trip out on the bugs and shapes of grasses and stuff.

Literally this will make you smarter. Our brains HAVE TO HAVE this zone out time to do important stuff behind the scenes. This does not happen during sleep, it's something else.

That weird pressurized feeling you get sometimes might be your brain on no defrag.

Give your brain a Daily Dose Of De-Frag.

Solitude and Resilience

Solitude often carries a sense of resilience. It’s in the quiet moments of being alone that many people find their inner strength and resolve.

Resilience is not a loud decree, But a soft murmur of a heart set free. In the solace of our own company, We craft the steel of our sturdy tree.
