🌳instead of complaining about how green the grass is on the other side, water your own grass and marvel at how green it becomes. complaints and comparisons don’t do anything🌳

the greatest skill a woman can learn for herself is self reliance

[butchdarry-deactivated20180612]

to clarify … so many strong women in my life rely on men. that dependence is dangerous. ladies here are some good ref resources I’ve found helpful on my journey towards self reliance

automobile

changing coolant

changing oil

changing tire

jumping a car

plumbing

toilet running

basement flooding

replace a faucet

clogged drain

electrical

replacing light switches

blew a fuse

installing overhead light

earth vs. neutral vs. live wires

home

patching drywall

finding studs

this list is in no way comprehensive feel free to add on

a lot of ‘man things’ are a lot easier than you think they are. especially considering the fact that most of these things when buying the parts come with directions on the packaging that men usually don’t even look at (and often end up doing it wrong because they were taught by fathers who also did not look at the packaging). 

like i recently had to change my car battery and freaked out cause i thought id electrocute myself but turns out new batteries come with directions and its the easiest shit in the world so long as you can lift the damn thing. 

so yeah, ladies dont ever feel like a man is a necessity for life, you can do this shit on your own its easier than you think!

My mom is teaching me all of these, if you’re a woman you must learn these.

Whether you live 20 years or 10,000 years, one day you will be gone and the meaning of your existence and the criteria upon which you anchor your value is something for you to determine now, not for others to decide later. Your meaning is here with you, not waiting in the future.

‪I’m not supposed to tell you this, but you are the result of a wish. There was an earlier version of you that didn’t have your talents, your passions, your unique perspective. Honestly, I still can’t get over how amazing you are.‬

“In the light of the long history of humanity, the fact that wage workers do not own the product of their own labor is quiet news. It is a product of bourgeois society. Craft workers and farmers up to the Middle Ages still controlled the production process and were owners of most of the fruit of their labor, even if they had to hand over a part of it to rulers. When workers are in control of the work they do, work is a means of self-expression. The creative capacity inherent in every human being is unleashed in labor activity.”
