The bare minimum isn’t flowers & dates The bare minimum is respect consistency & making you feel safe

Stay away from people who always consider you expressing how you feel as you arguing or being extra. It’s called gaslighting. Toxic people do that so they don’t have to take accountability for their own behavior.

"Get me another plate but say its for u"

Confrontation. Everybody likes to confuse emotional repression with maturity.

Unfortunately, people have a right to decline your love no matter how pure your intentions are. You are not what they want and that is okay.

ngl having people that love you is one thing. But having people who still love you when you’re a burden, when things are a mess, when you’re in the wrong…those are your people. to truly be loved is to still be loved when it’s inconvenient to love you.

i read this today: “any relationship you have that could be ruined by having a conversation about your feelings, standards, and or expectations wasn’t really stable enough to begin with beloved!”and i felt that.

One minute you don’t have, the next minute your cup is overflowing, God’s grace.

i'm convinced when you REKINDLE a relationship with someone (friend, family, ex, etc ) something will ALWAYS resurface to show you why you should have left it burned and dried up.

i no longer need hardcore proof to validate what my intuition tells me. if something seems off about a person/place/thing, it's because something is off. i’m not sticking around to discover what it is. my time and my energy are way too valuable

The highest calling isn’t marriage. It isn’t motherhood. It isn’t homemaking. It’s glorifying God..right where you are, with what He’s given you. Everything else is just the overflow.

You’ve got to move in love. You have to forgive people who sometimes aren’t even remorseful. You’re not doing it for them, you’re doing it for the purity of your heart. Walk in love.

i saw a post today that said, “when you finally learn your place in people's lives, your feelings won't get hurt” and i swear that's the truth and one of the most important life lesson you will learn. whether it's family, friends, or whoever

Due for a date night in lake Como, Italy.
