“allow the pieces to fall apart no matter how rough it feels, allow what doesn’t want to stick to crumble away beautifully, allow what has no desire to stay to find a home elsewhere, allow the energy of everything shifting from you to create space for everything that you need.”

Gaslighting is when they repeatedly trigger your nervous system and mental health, then blame you for how you react, yet never accept accountability, or discuss their disrespect.

One day you will look back and realize that your timing was perfect, and why things had to happen the way they did. To protect you, to guide you and to redirect you to where you were always meant to be. Trust the process of your evolution and growth - it's all divine timing.

i want a soft connection. i want to be asked how my day went and if i need anything. i want forehead kisses. i want the back of my hand kissed at red lights. i want to be asked how i’m mentally feeling. i want to hold hands everywhere we go. i want romantic gestures. i want my hair played in at the most unexpected moments. i want silent eye connections that lead to smiles. i want to take random walks.

The Need

by Rod McKuen

It’s nice sometimes to open up the heart a little and let some hurt come in. It proves you’re still alive.

If nothing else it says to you– clear as a high hill air, uncomfortable as diving through cold water–

I’m here. However wretchedly I feel, I feel.

I’m not sure why we cannot shake the old loves from our minds. It must be that we build on memory and make them more than what they were. And is the manufacture just a safe device for closing up the wall?

I do remember. The only fuzzy circumstance is sometimes where and how. Why, I know.

It happens just because we need to want and to be wanted, too, when love is here or gone to lie down in the darkness and listen to the warm.

No matter how hard you try to be what you once were, you can only be what you are here and now. Time hypnotizes. When you're nine, you think you've always been nine years old and will always be. When you're thirty, it seems you've always been balanced there on that bright rim of middle life. And then when you turn seventy, you are always and forever seventy. You're in the present, you're trapped in a young now or an old now, but there is no other now to be seen.

– Ray Bradbury, Dandelion Wine

what i was and what i am

are bound by some mystical matter, but as for the cells

i was once composed of, most are gone now, leaving only

the code— replicating, reaching for realness

till it no longer can
