Dom, what advice would you give someone who has just entered their twenties? What should i expect from this fresh chapter in my life

Biggest advice is don’t compare yourself to others. Fortify internally and give yourself permission to explore, play, and walk your own path. Eat whole foods as much as you can and stay away from heavy use of substances that kill your intuition. Believe in your competence and trust yourself more than anyone else. Work on not needing validation from toxic parents/friends/lovers. Work on not needing validation from great parents/friends/lovers. But express gratitude for validation when it comes. If you can’t love yourself yet, be empathetic at least and start smiling in the mirror. Allow yourself to make self-directed decisions without focusing on what’s right/wrong (in terms of jobs, leaving things, etc). The illusion of security can really keep you stuck at this age, sometimes you have to learn to laugh as you free-fall and see rock bottom as a blessing. Kill the inner tyrant in your head. Work towards a worldview in which all circumstances are malleable. Help as much as you can, even when it’s a little embarrassing. Ask for help even when it’s very embarrassing. Recognize the power that you have to alter your externals, and don’t beat yourself up for the times when you get kicked down by life, bc you will be Lol. Accept your face, your body, your proportions, your lips, your teeth, your laugh, your legs, your ass, and don’t make enjoyment conditional on any of these factors. Don’t wait on the perfect hairstyle or the most energetic days. Get rid of the internalized end-goal. Everything is a lifelong process. Let go of all expectations and try to give your heart what it wants. That being said, remember that limitation is the first step to manifestation. Structure allows for more freedom just as technique allows for more imagination. Start now on inner child work, yoga, and mindfulness. It’s not something to dabble in, it’s the way to knowing what you want out of life. Dream big but know why you’re dreaming. I’m rooting for you, sending you love, you will be an incredible adult!

Don’t Have A Dirty Mind…. Have A Sexy Imagination

[naturaekos]

“So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they’re busy doing things they think are important. This is because they’re chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning”

When the honeymoon stage ends what happens

…………

[ceraycarter]

You’re more honest with each other. Bodily functions are something to laugh about. Sweatpants and tee shirts are a regular thing. They know what you look like without all the makeup. Being “laid up and watching Netflix” is the only thing you’re looking forward to after work. You don’t go on fancy dates as often but you trade that for quality time. You find yourself being more vulnerable and you open up more. They become your best friend. You will able to talk about anything. You won’t be worried about impressing their parents, you’re just gonna love them anyway regardless of how their parents may feel. You will have inside jokes that no one else will get. Sex is not as often but, twice as passionate. Little fights will happen, but you’ll learn not to sweat the small stuff. You’ll learn what compromise really is about. You’ll dream about the future together. Grow together. Be on each other’s team. See their ugly crying face, and be the one to wipe the tears away & do something stupid to make them life. things are amazing after the honeymoon stage. However, it’s a time about giving up your walls and open up some doors you have locked a long time ago.

That’s why some people don’t make it past this point, because they don’t know what unconditional self-love means. Remain open and optimistic, love will never fail you.

I love when this post resurfaces. It’s like a gentle reminder.
