What so many need right now is a safe place to fall apart. Not in a tragic way, but like an extended exhale. No advice. No interruptions to their thought process. No list of what’s next to heal. A place where they know they are safely held & that by resting, they will soon rise.

Introverts don't need people. Sure, they enjoy the company of a few. But they never force people to choose them. It's just not their nature. They're fiercely independent. They will love you, care for you, make you feel like a million dollars, but they will never chase you.

If you knock an empath down, you better pray they don't get back up.... because when they do, you're screwed. ~Unknown~ #EducatedEmpaths🦋

“It’s hard to be brave,” said Piglet, “when you’re only a Very Small Animal.” Rabbit said: “It is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us.” Piglet was so excited at the idea of being Useful that he forgot to be frightened. ~A.A.Milne

Leaving out details is considered lying too. I need people to understand that

You don't have to wake up at 4 am to be productive. Everybody's built different. Some work best in the mornings, some in the evenings. Forcing it will only create more resistance. It's about doing the work, not following the rules. Keep it low stress. And keep it simple.

Wherever I am, there's always Pooh, There's always Pooh and Me. “What would I do?” I said to Pooh, “If it wasn't for you,” and Pooh said: “True, It isn't much fun for One, but Two, Can stick together,” says Pooh, says he. “That's how it is,” says Pooh. ~A.A.Milne #ValentinesDay

Introverts are not socially awkward, they're socially brilliant. Zero interest in fitting in or seeking approval. Vibing alone, thinking, observing, learning. Thriving in solitude. Not caring. That's just who they are. Take it or leave.

Fuck everybody who doesn't demand better. Fuck your politics and paper chase. Fuck your disregard for fellow humans. Fuck your disregard for animals. Fuck your lack of respect for nature and the very precious things that give you the ability to destroy it.

Women aren’t designed to handle a lot of stress. We can handle it, because we are smart and responsible and capable, despite what toxic masculinity says. But our bodies can’t. Our bodies and our hormones aren’t designed to handle a lot of stress

How did, wanting everyone to have a better quality of life on a habitable planet, become the controversial ideal? How did wishing to be able to help everyone, become the radical position? This consumes me.

Happiness is not about reaching your goals. It's about aligning your goals with your values. Progress without purpose is empty. Achievement without impact is fleeting. Success is most rewarding when it serves the people and principles that matter to you.

we're all growing in different directions, at different speeds. we will all grow apart from people we love. relationships will shift. memories will fade. but the beauty of this gradual separation is that as we drift apart, we make space for people who can meet us where we’re at.
