#i needed to hear this today

"[The mid-life crisis] is at that mid-point in our personal continuum when our delicate lives hang in the balance. We look behind us to see how far we've come and we realize that our past isn't a solitary trail through secret woods but a vista as big and as expansive as the ocean itself with our experiences stretching to the horizon like tiny dot-like sailboats sucked up in the enormous sea.

Nel mezzo del cammin di nostra vita / mi ritrovai per una selva oscura / ché la diritta via era smarrita."

you don't have to publish this if you don't want but my partner's mum got clean about a year after they went no contact with her and they went through the very similar emotions to what you're feeling and it's taken time but they've come to a place where they don't feel guilty for their parent being clean not being a blank slate to start again from. no fucker else gets to decide you suddenly should be okay with what happened just because someone decided to finally stop throwing grenades into everyone else's life. sending you a big hug x

Thank you. This helps so much actually, so really - thank you.

Sending big hugs right back at you 💖

shout out to men who have experienced any kind of sexual trauma, no matter how "insignificant" it may seem

you are valid. i don't care if it was a "joke" what they did, whether it was a friend, or a loved one, or an animal. under no circumstances does your trauma become invalid

I don't know if anyone needs to hear this but

You are not dumb for loving someone. Never. Even if that someone does not love you back or if that someone just plays with you. You are not dumb, it just means that you are a sensitive person, with a soul and heart.

If you honestly and wholeheartedly love someone and that person just plays with you that tells more about that person than about you.

You are not dumb for loving. But you can't let anyone play with your heart, you have to take it back, and you have to cherish it, for seeing the good in others, for being able to stay warm in this world. Cherish it because it still beats, because there is still life in you.

clinging to our ideas of perfection isolates us from life and is a barrier to real love for ourselves.

Perfection is a brittle state that generates a lot of anxiety

achieving and maintaining unwavering standards whether they’re internal or external means we’re always under threat.

love for the self cannot be a refuge because it has become too conditional, too dependent on performance.

Loving ourselves calls us to give up the illusion that we can control everything and instead focuses us on building our inner resource of resilience.

When we learn to respond to disappointments with acceptance, we give ourselves the space to realize that all our experiences, good and bad alike are opportunities to learn and grow.
