it's better to be a good example than it is to stoop to someone's level. for all of the reasons they tell us it is. but also: because I shouldn't be doing all the work. why do I need to lower my standards? why don't you increase yours? why do I need to meet your unkindness with more unkindness? why don't you match my compassion with compassion? it's time we started refusing extra work when it comes to people who only want what's convenient for them. - renuka i. I may be a good person because it’s the right thing to do. but I’m also a good person because it’s the right thing for ME. I don’t want to be influenced by your poor attitude because it doesn’t work for my health. so if you want to have a conversation with me - change your attitude. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with asking for this. follow for more inspirational quotes @renukawrites!

“ We have a strong city; God makes salvation its walls and ramparts. Open the gates that the righteous nation may enter, the nation that keeps faith. You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in You. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord Himself, is the Rock eternal. He humbles those who dwell on high, He lays the lofty city low; He levels it to the ground and casts it down to the dust. Feet trample it down-- the feet of the oppressed, the footsteps of the poor.”

-- Isaiah 26: 1-6 (NIV)

when u get this u have to answer with 5 things u like about yourself, publicly. then, send this ask to 10 of your favorite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool)

CRYING I’m a favorite this makes me happy. Positivity is the newest trend that I hope stays forever.

1) I like my laugh, it’s like a evil laugh mixed with in with some wheezing and maybe a cackle?? I sound like a evil geek and I love it. It also scares people because they don’t know if I’m laughing at their suffering or something else. I’m a mischievous person so I like to poke fun at their uncertainty. 

2) I like!! How!! I’m there for my friends!! I’m not the best at conversation but if I can be there to help support my friends or just strangers when they need someone to listen to their problems then that makes me happy. 3) BOY HOWDY I’VE BEEN COMBATING MY SOCIAL ANXIETY AND WINNING. I’m gonna kick it’s ass and make it scream for it’s momma. I’m talking to more people outside of my usual social circle and making more friends this year! Go me! Kick it’s ass!4) I’ve been generally improving myself. Like my art, my mental health and discovering new hobbies! I’ve been much happier lately and I’ve been more honest with myself(cutting back on toxic tendencies and toxic spaces I used to be in, as well as toxic people who I was in contact with). I also found out recently that I think having a wife someday is the best thing ever and I’m happy to find that out. I’m gonna love her a shit ton, watch so many movies with her and make her dinner on most nights. Also make her my favorite food: Fried chicken chunks in a home made waffle cone, or just take her to my favorite food place ever: Chick n Cone, either or. 5) I also like how excitable and easily happy with things I can be? Looking into the silver lining of everything? Yeah! Looking at the bright side of things has always helped me get through rough patches so I hope I can keep that trait about myself. ✨

there's nothing wrong with feeling defeated. feeling sorry for yourself, feeling upset about your circumstances. thinking it's unfair, wondering why you must endure it. you are not required to be strong all of the time. not required to be constantly grateful and hopeful. it's not human. and it doesn't make you a bad person in the moments where you're unable to look past your pain. so let yourself be low. move through it instead of blocking it entirely. because when you're able to process things, it makes it easier to return to a place of hope. - renuka i. sometimes, it sucks. all of it. everything. nobody expects you to pretend like it doesn’t. sometimes the key to processing it all is to actually feel it in stead of dismissing it. follow for more inspirational quotes @renukawrites
