lately i’ve been replacing my “i’m sorry”s with “thank you”s, like instead of “sorry i’m late” i’ll say “thanks for waiting for me”, or instead of “sorry for being such a mess” i’ll say “thank you for loving me and caring about me unconditionally” and it’s not only shifted the way i think and feel about myself but also improved my relationships with others who now get to receive my gratitude instead of my negativity
This is some 2017 mood
What is burnout and how can one prevent it?
Burnout is the fourth time you hit your alarm going off at 4 am and you just can’t get out of bed.
Burnout is walking straight out of the hospital when your shift ends even though you see a patient’s family member crying in the hall and you don’t stop.
Burnout is snapping at a colleague, yelling at a nurse, or tossing an instrument back down on a tray in a huff.
Burnout is walking out of a patient’s room and deciding you don’t care about their health either, since clearly they don’t.
Burnout is hanging up with a consulting service and calling the other doctor a moron.
Burnout is wondering if there is any way you could quit this life and pick a different job.
Burnout is coming home and not kissing the people you love and walking straight to the bedroom to strip down and get in the shower or to the kitchen to pour a drink or to the couch to forget it all.
Burnout is calling out sick to work because you can’t do it one more day.
Burnout is fatalism. Burnout is exhaustion. Burnout is tears or screaming or silence.
The truth is that everyone in medicine experiences burnout in one form or another at least once during their career. You go to work and you give 110% of yourself.
You give until you’re exhausted and you can’t do it anymore–and that’s when we have to fall back on the things that sustain us.
And so, recovery is Sunday morning brunch with a friend you haven’t seen in a year.
Recovery is date night and two glasses of wine and entwined fingers.
Recovery is a hug from your mom when she whispers she’s proud of you.
Recovery is a hard run where your lungs burn and your muscles ache.
Recovery is windows down and music up.
Recovery is a text message from your brother with a memory from childhood you had forgotten.
Recovery is spontaneous 10pm baking sessions.
Recovery is your favorite book and a cup of tea
Recovery is your dad’s worst dad joke.
Recovery is taking the time for yourself and taking time for the people you love the most.
Burnout is real, but recovery is possible. :)

I love you, that means I’m not just here for the pretty parts. I’m here no matter what.

The bravest thing you can ever do, is to stay kind and soft even when the world has been cruel to you.
Nikita Gill, Brave (via meanwhilepoetry)
I think everything in life is art. What you do. How you dress. The way you love someone, and how you talk. Your smile and your personality. What you believe in, and all your dreams. The way you drink your tea. How you decorate your home. Or party. Your grocery list. The food you make. How your writing looks. And the way you feel. Life is art.

7 billion smiles and yours is my favorite.

Clear your mind here
when my mother was pregnant with her second child, i was 4 i pointed at her swollen belly confused at how my mother had gotten so big in such little time my father scooped me in his tree trunk arms and said the closest thing to god on this earth is a woman’s body it’s where life comes from and to have a grown man tell me something so powerful at such a young age changed me to see that the entire universe rested at my mother’s feet
rupi kaur (via rabbrakha)
when someone loves you - really loves you - treat them gently. text your best friend back when you can. tell your mother you noticed her haircut and that she was right about that recipe. tell your grandfather that the boats in his bottles are the best things you’ve ever seen. be good to the people who are good to you. it’s the least you can do.
The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.

men fabricated the idea that they are the default sex to compensate for their biological inferiority and general superfluousness
this is not just the “natural order” this is the language of a patriarchal culture
Omg no, you are wrong on so many levels and as a linguist this makes me ache something terrible. In my linguistics class in undergrad, we actually made fun of people who think like you along these lines and for good reason, because you are wholly ignorant and are choosing to spin narratives about things and fields which you know completely nothing about yet pretend you do.
She: This word evolved naturally from Old English from seo/heo which were just words to refer to feminine-female people evolving from Proto-Germanic words meaning ‘that/there’. He as a word evolved from the same ideas but Proto-Germanic words for ‘this/here’. Your idea of “patriarchal language” further falls apart when you compare this part of English to other Germanic languages, of which English is related, the words in German for he and she are “er” and “sie”, completely unrelated. So it is by clear happenstance, not some patriarchal conspiracy that the words “he” and “she” in English have similar form.
Woman: Oh god this one always gets my goat when people go for this one. Man did not used to mean “male”, man used to mean “humanity/human being”, the old words in Old English for male adult person and female adult person were “werman” and “wifman” respectively, we can see this relation in words like werewolf and wife as being the remnants of the base “wer-” and the base “wif-”. Woman evolved phonologically from the word “wifman” by natural processes where the ‘f’ sound dropped and the ‘i’ became lax. Man dropped its “wer” stem for reasons mostly unknown but I can guarantee have nothing to do with “patriarchy” because phonological change has no basis in that.
Female: Male and Female actually come etymologically from two completely different words. Male comes from Old French “masle” which meant masculine, while Female came from Old French as well “femella” which meant young woman. This is another case, just like he and she, where the words coincidentally ended up looking similar without having any direct correlation in historical linguistic processes to make them as such.
Human: This word etymologically derives from Proto-Indo-European “ghomon” which means earthly being as opposed to heavenly being which would refer to gods. You have some small glimmer of hope here in that the word does eventually branch off into the word for “man” in some languages but this is still too small of a precedent to base any conspiratorial thinking like you are doing off of.
Person: This one offends me the most, simply because I love the fuck out of Etruscan language and your continued ignorance just irks me at this point. Person derives from “persona” from Latin which meant the same meaning, which ultimately derived from “phersu” Etruscan for ‘mask’ as Etruscans would often have theatre performers use masks to give identity to the performers. So never once did “person” have any meaning to do with “son”. So yes, this IS the “natural order” or language.
Please never proselytise your faulty ideology and misandrist thinking within speaking about word origins and morphology again, as unless you actually do fact checking, I will school the everloving hell out of you, stay in your lane.
thank god for the explanation above
You know it’s a slow day in oppression when this is what they’re complaining about
