Once you get this you have to say 5 nice things about yourself publicly and then send it to ten of your favorite blogs ♡♡
Tonight I had dinner with mostly strangers but it was really fun, and I had no problems engaging in conversation and throwing banter. Five years ago I would never have felt so relaxed in a setting like that, I couldn’t have done it. I’m really proud of myself for how far I’ve come
Tonight I also came to the conclusion I’m not really dating anybody. We like each other, but when somebody’s a month away from completing their thesis and getting their master’s they don’t really have a lot of time for anything else. I’m okay to just take a break, focus on other things as well; we can meet up later when things aren’t so crazy. I don’t need this to happen right now, and I feel good that I can say that and really mean it.Resiliency is still the core of who I am, and I’m still surprised by the power of my determination to still be me, still be soft, even after all the bruising.I love that music has the power to put so much emotion in the mundane activities of my days. Walking home with headphones, the world is transformed; everything is suddenly quiet, and there’s nothing but beautiful music, and you can’t hear the conversations but you can see them smiling, laughing, gesturing. You see so much more without the noise–everything silent and set to a beautiful soundtrack. I love those moments I have with myself.I can’t think of a fifth thing. I feel like I’ve meditated enough on my self-positivity here.
