Girls will suffer unearthly tragedies and still run errands the same day with a smile on their faces, but if a man’s parents divorce when he is 12, he will unleash his wrath on the world for the rest of his life.
The devil did, in fact, reach me. I spent years healing, and then he sent me a man who chased me, convinced me to give him a chance, love bombed the shit out of me, and discarded me on a random Tuesday like none of it ever meant anything.
I don’t know. I actually think it’s really cool to care a lot, to send the long message, remember people’s birthdays, and ask if they got home safely. I will never be nonchalant, and I’m glad. Honestly, I want people to know how much they mean to me during our short time on planet Earth. :)
At this point, I really only care about myself. For real. I’ve spent way too much time showing up for people, going out of my way for people, doing things for people, and giving more than I ever got back. Honestly, I’m tired of pouring into people who wouldn’t even think twice about pouring into me.
I’m done overextending myself. I’m done chasing reciprocity. I’m done making excuses for people who wouldn’t make the same effort for me. From here on out, I’m choosing me. My peace, my time, my energy, and my life. If that makes me selfish, then so be it. I’ve spent enough time putting everybody else first.
I’m done. For real.
I refuse to rush my grief. If I need two years to process what I’ve lost, then I’ll take those two years. There’s nothing shameful about pausing, falling apart, or allowing loss to change you. Life isn’t always about producing something. Sometimes, it’s about surviving the season you’re in.
That “turn the other cheek” bullshit was never about peace. It was about protecting predators from accountability and conditioning people to tolerate harm.
Let’s be clear…
If force, consequences, and confrontation had no place in spirituality, energies like Aries and Scorpio would not exist.
I’m proud of you.
Most people don’t know your story, your struggles, your hustle, or your prayers. Most people don’t know that you’re fighting and losing some of your silent battles. If you don’t hear this often, just know that I’m proud of you. Hang on.
I’m not settling for a life I’m unhappy with. I’ma go back to the drawing board every single time until I get this shit right.
Y’all ever feel so unappreciated, and you be doing any and everything for people? I go so hard for people, always making sure they’re good and meeting their every desire. But when it comes to me, it’s like I’m visible, but the shit I do for them is invisible. It goes unnoticed. Sometimes I hate having a good heart. That’s why I act like I don’t care about anything.
The crazy part is, I’m exactly who I think I am. No delusion, no facade. Everything is right there, accounted for, proven facts and in your face. 👈🏾
I love when I stick to the program. Whether it’s going to the gym, cutting someone off, eating right, or setting boundaries, when I validate my worth through my actions, I gain more love and respect for myself.
