My therapist told me to imagine neural pathways are built from jenga blocks. Every time we do something differently, such as choosing a different response or behaviour, it’s like taking a jenga block from the old pathway and putting it on the new pathway. The old pathway gets slightly weaker and the new pathway gets slightly stronger.

Our ability to literally alter the way our brains work blows my mind.

“Maybe you need to give yourself what you are looking for from other people”

- my therapist, January 2021

Just a reminder it is not your job to make people love you. It is your job to show people who you are and allow them an opportunity to love you, if they want to. If they don’t, please walk away. Let them go.

no amount of other people liking me is going to make me like me

The reason why many people are unhappy with something is because they care too much about the outcome. Learn to enjoy the process. Even if the result turns out to be awful, you wouldn't regret it because you truly enjoyed the process. And that's what counts.

hey. you don’t need to settle. you don’t need to be someone’s second choice. you don’t need to hold on because “maybe this time” they’ll see that you’re worthy of their love. you know why? because for the right person, there won’t be another choice. because the right person will give you their love without you having to beg for it. because the right person will treat you how you should have been treated all along. your love is so beautiful, so special. don’t waste it on someone who doesn’t see that. if they have to lose you in order to learn how to appreciate you, they didn’t deserve you in the first place.

Platonic love is important too, be nice to each other, compliment people, tell people that you love them. Kindness shouldn’t be mistaken for flirting and people deserve to be appreciated.

I came across this post and it explains my thoughts on this perfectly! This is exactly it, just protect yourself! it may hurt in the moment but it will pass.

It’s better than continuing to allow another person to make you unhappy. When you let go of that negativity you’ll begin to heal and gain a better understanding of yourself and how to navigate through hard times.

A few hard truths if you’re truly doing the inner work, and you really want to have quality people in your life. Stop being afraid of losing people that you don’t even like or connect with based on what your true values are.

maybe plato was right.

maybe people are actually way too stupid to make any decisions for themselves.

“Stop comparing yourself to other people, all it does is hurt you. There’s no correct way to exist in this world, so just be who you are because it’s enough. You are absolutely perfect the way you are.” - Unknown

maybe mediocrity isn’t wrong. maybe you don’t need to be the best at everything you do. maybe you don’t need to be the best at anything you do. it’s ok to simply do things because you enjoy doing them. its ok to not want to advance in your job. nothing has to be a competition. you don’t need to be better than anyone. you can do things just because they’re fun. you don’t need to read up on the history, and know everything about it. its ok to just exist. its ok.

I fear that I love too deeply for those who don’t love at all.

I thought it was enough just to know that my heart could still hold someone, but I find that the edges of the space I carved for you have begun to collapse against the emptiness.
