2018

My year of:

Choosing myself over and over, and not feeling guilty for doing so.

Saying goodbye to forced friendships, toxic friendships, one-sided friendships, tiring friendships, etc.

Never ever ever again settling for partners who work overtime to make me believe I’m hard to love. Never ever again. Even when I’m loneliest.

Staying focused on the things that matter.

Seeking help when l need it.

Accepting help when it is offered.

Accepting love when it is given.

Being more loving.

Being more forgiving.

Protecting my space.

Taking more risks (academically, career-wise, etc.)

Remembering to focus on my own journey and not compare myself to others (especially important this year).

Celebrating the victories (no matter how small).

And, above all, being more spiritual and being able to listen to (and obey) God amidst all the noise.

“6 months from now I will be in a different situation.”

Speak it into existence.

A better one.

There are two types of ‘tired’, I suppose. One is a dire need of sleep, the other is the dire need of peace.

Lmao so will I dream about you forever?

I’m tired.

Love doesn’t leave you traumatized.

[difficultsuggestions]

Listen to me, LOVE doesn’t leave you traumatized. What was happening to you wasn’t love.

Forever grateful for the ones who go the extra mile for you. ❤️

One day I’ll write about you.

I’m trying to gracefully get out the water like this. She even did a hair flip!

A few good days in a row. Jamaica was good for me.

Reminder:

If you don't call out your predatory friends on their bullshit, you're part of the problem.
