its true that crying wont solve things but we dont cry to solve. we cry to release
Taking the lid off a pot that’s boiling too much wont solve the problem of the heat being too high, but it will release the pressure so you’ll have time to get the heat under control before everything inside the pot explodes
you're not here to make everyone happy and you're never going to be able to.
you broke me open and closed me up. what if i never open up again?
you showed me i am capable of great love, and i have not lost that love as i have lost you.
you have to stop hating yourself for not taking care of yourself before you can start taking care of yourself in a more sustainable way
it took me so long to accept this but you need self-compassion like the number one thing you need to take care of yourself is self compassion especially when you fail. self compassion is not going to hurt you or make you complacent or less motivated. You have to forgive yourself for not being there yet before you can get there and also you have to accept that getting angry at yourself when you inevitably fail or mess up is not a good method of self discipline it’s not going to work in a way that means anything and you are not going to get anywhere with it you have to find a different method of self discipline that isn’t anger or harsh self criticism it has to be a seriously much kinder method it can’t be based on punishing yourself for your mistakes it’s not going to do you any good you have to be sooooo nice and kind to yourself that you feel STUPID!!!!You have to. you have to submit to self-compassion its sooo scary but you have to let it speak to you it loves you so much and it wants everything that you want for yourself and it’s going to help you . Important Letters to my past self.com
Saw this on the way to work yesterday, what a kind and important message.
We live in a culture that romanticizes illness. I hope you learn to romanticize your healing, however that looks for you.
How fucking annoying is it when you feel so restless with creative energy but you can’t decide what to do with it and when you finally try to create something it comes out shit so you just give up and sit there being all creatively annoyed and jittery.
1 - Decision Making Fatigue is a thing. --> Make a list of possibilities. --> Use a random number generator to pick something off the list. --> If you hate the idea cross it off and generate a new number. --> Continue until you either find a project or cross off the whole list. --> If you cross off the whole list pick a random short story prompt, write for five minutes, and call it a good work day.
2. Yeah, of course your rough draft sucks. It’s supposed to. --> Let it suck. --> You can fix it in edits.
3. When you’re stressed you aren’t unbiased about your work. --> Don’t judge your work while your are actively working on it. --> Remember to drink water, take your meds/vitamins, eat something, and get sleep. --> Double-check to make sure the restless creative energy is not displaced emotional worries over something else. If it is, displace with intention and let the worries go into your work. You shouldn’t keep stress in your head, put it on a page, or canvas, or in a carving, or a meal, or something. Get it out and let it go.
4. No work is ever wasted. --> All time spent planning and creating is useful in some way. --> Failure means you tried, which is good. --> Try again. Fail harder. Fail better. --> Keep going until you like what you’re making.
5. Love yourself enough to allow yourself to not be perfect. --> Seriously. --> If this is a struggle I highly recommend seeing a doctor or therapist about depression. --> Because you are dang lovable, my friend. You rock. You do great things. I’m proud of you.
hopeful love letters from me to you pt 2💌🫧♥️🌻🐝🌟☕️
mundane tasks like wiping down surfaces & folding the laundry can be spiritual practices and even blessings if we allow them to be
maybe i am too old for tiktok
My son once came back from a record shop visit with his uncle and with wide eyes and excited smile presented me with a cassette tape. “Look what I found!” As though he’d unearthed ancient pottery at a dig sight.
I love it. I love when my kids discover something that I take for granted. I hear songs with new ears because they are in a state of wonder. My son played me “Paint it Black” the other day, I’m like yeah Rolling Stones so what? And then I see his face and that LOOK like he just discovered sunsets and he’s like yeah but listen to this part, listen to the guitar right here - and I hear a song anew. Like watching a puppy see a bird for the first time, and oh oh right yeah birds are fucking amazing, forgot about that.
#finally a comment that doesn’t have disdain for kids discovering old things #isn’t it cool that someone didn’t know Queen and they got to hear it for the first time? #isn’t it cool to witness that excitement?
I think this is largely why “react” channels on YouTube have become so popular. Watching someone experience something you love for the first time is exciting. Rediscovering that thing through their eyes is also exciting.
I've seen this before, but it's been years and it just came across my Twitter in its dying days. The words are from a favorite author of mine, Maggie Stiefvater, and they are the words I most need to hear when it comes to dealing with chronic pain and illness. I didn't need this the first time I saw it, six years ago. I need it now. Maybe you do, too.
The older you get the more you will realize that your friends are people who have made mistakes and bad decisions and even just fucked up and hurt people.
And obviously your boundaries with your friends are completely up to you but you do need to recognize that if you cut off everyone who has done something wrong, you’re going to end up with no friends (and you yourself will have also fucked up in your life, and not lived up to those impossible standards either).
I’ve found it’s much more constructive to learn how to say “hey dude, that was massively fucked up of you,” because most people are really willing to say “yeah, it was, I need to work on it/not do it again/apologize and make things right” ESPECIALLY if they are hearing it from you as their friend.
Sometimes the kindest thing you can do for another person is to tell them that they’ve done something wrong, help them fix it, and stay their friend because it’s what we would want from them if we did something wrong.

“no matter how badly you think you’re doing it, someone else has done it a lot worse and been fine” is applicable to a wide, wide range of things and i say it to myself all the time
"bigger idiots than me have done it" is a phrase I live by
