Actually, you are enough. Even if you don’t work. Or study. Or go out. Or have friends. Or have family. You’re enough because you exist and your existence is enough to be enough because you are not a product. You are not a sum of output. You are not a task to complete. But because you are something the universe wanted and put here even if you’ll never understand why. Somewhere in the cosmos your existence makes a difference, even if it’s not the way others existences do.

A friend told me ‘Don’t to make it easy for people to simplify you.’ If they don’t like how much you talk, how quiet you are, annoyed at the things you get excited about, don’t try and stop being/doing those things. Make it hard for people. Make it hard for people to be able to minimize/direct you. Let it filter out who is not meant for you. Because not all people are meant for you, not all people are good for you, and vice versa. Not necessarily in a bad, or cruel way, just an honest way. Some people bring out the light in you, some don’t. You bring out the light in others, others you don’t. There’s nothing wrong with that. But don’t make it easy for people to simplify who you are. And to quote this friend, at the very end of our late night talk. “We don't need anyone telling us or authorising us being us.” (Rough translation)

And if someone laughs at you for loving something unusual. Love. It. Harder.

Thank you for being kind :)

And thank YOU for being kind :)

Someone said, “What we give won’t always be returned, but what we give will always be what we are.” And I think that is even more beautiful than if it was returned. Because I think it does return to you anyway, in the sense that it’s rewiring your nervous system every time you give out kindness, whether that is directed at someone else, or yourself. I think it returns to you in the sense that, inwardly, after performing an act of kindness, it does something to your soul; it leaves you with this quiet feeling that you have just added something good to the world, and you, my love, were that something good.

Thank you for your posts. They help make the world a brighter place. ❤️

Aww! You made my entire week! Thank you, I’m glad people like it. It makes me so happy. I hope you have a great day. 🥹❤️

“Sorry that was TMI” “Sorry that was a lot” “Sorry, I know I talk about it a lot” Have you ever thought that maybe it’s a privilege to be the person who gets to listen to you? Have you ever thought I’ve never once thought you were too much? Have you ever thought it actually makes my entire week just to know you still had a thought in your mind and wanted to share it to me, specifically? Have you ever thought that maybe you’re not too much to me, you’re not even just “enough”, you’re just you and that’s the only thing I’ve ever wanted from you?

[thesweetiepienovels]

There’s an entire freaking world full of billions and billions and billions of people, you will be loved! you have yet to meet every single person who will love you, who you will love, who will become your most favorite person in life, who will be screaming and cheering from the sidelines for you in life. There will always be someone waiting to meet you, to love you. Always. 

[thesweetiepienovels]

And maybe no one will ever understand you, maybe not even a little bit. Maybe nobody will understand a sliver of what you’ve been through or what you feel every day. Maybe nobody will ever hear about the nights you spent crying on your bathroom floor or how many times you’ve grieved the same thing over and over and over. But maybe they’re not supposed to, because I think there’s something much, much more intimate and beautiful about a person who doesn’t understand any of it, or maybe even know any of your story, and they still treat you like you’re the most precious thing they’ve ever had the privilege of knowing. Maybe the point is not to be known completely, maybe it is just to be loved anyway.

Reminder: It takes absolutely no courage to hate. It takes immense courage to believe in goodness after experiencing the opposite. To refuse to become what hurt you, what made you lose your faith in humanity. It takes immense courage to heal, and to let your heart remain open, even if the world has given you very little reasons not to.

[thesweetiepienovels]

The art of not caring. The act of purposely choosing to not let everything have access to your peace. I’m not talking about detachment, if anything I’m talking about the opposite. I’m talking about focusing your energy on things that nourish you instead of drain you. You cannot go through your life with the weight of the world resting on your shoulders, because eventually you’ll be too exhausted to carry the things that actually matter. And that’s the whole point, to do the things that matter to you, to love the things that matter to you, because a life spent carrying everything that was never yours to hold is a life spent missing what was yours to hold.

Slow down, you’re supposed to be living.

Hi! I hope you don't mind me popping into your inbox. 🩵

I came across your blog and I thought you might be interested in a new blog I made.

It's a small place for people to share little victories and scary things they've done anyway. No pressure to follow or submit, I just thought it might be something you'd like ⭐ This is a little scary for me, aha.

@socialanxietywins if you'd be interested. 🦋

Awww, no, I don’t mind. And I’ll absolutely share this. I love finding little places of positivity on the internet. This is a very important & beautiful idea. I hope your blog gets all the love. ❤️

You can’t ‘skip’ being kind to yourself. That’s not how it works. You cannot spread love and good and positivity into this world and expect it all back ten fold if you’re not even extending that own love and kindness to yourself. Practicing kindness and love and empathy and all of those things have to include yourself for neuroplasticity to actually take root. Your brain is constantly learning from what you repeatedly show it. And if you’re not showing it, yourself, any of what you give to others, how do you expect it to understand that you, too, are worthy of the same things that you give? You cannot plant flowers in everybody else’s garden while simultaneously saying to yourself that your own soil is unworthy of water or care of any kind. You cannot build a life rooted in love while making yourself the exception to every kindness you offer everyone else. Please do not teach yourself that pain is what you deserve. You deserve to be included in the love you give.

Sigo leyendo tus textos y no puedo evitar volver a felicitarte. Hace poco tuve a mi primer bebé y el posparto ha sido todo un desafío, tanto a nivel hormonal como físico y emocional. Hay días que pueden sentirse realmente grises.

Quería hacerte saber que leer tus publicaciones me ha dado mucha esperanza y me he sentido muy identificada con la forma tan gentil y humana en que ves la vida. Leerte me recordó partes de mí que había olvidado y, de alguna manera, me ayudó a reencontrarme con ellas.

Gracias por compartir tus palabras. Te mando un abrazo grande ♥️☺️

Okay, I teared up reading this. From the bottom of my heart, thank you! And also, congratulations! Oh my goodness, congratulations! Please be so very kind and gracious to yourself always, but also because you just brought another human life into this world, and quite frankly, I think that is VERY BADASS. I’m so happy I could give you something to help during those tough times.

I wish you and your family the most beautiful life. 😭🥹❤️ (Also, I love your blog, I had to follow)

🫀Hermoso todos los mensajes que escribes, ojala existieran mas personas con tus mismos sentimientos🫀

Oh, thank you. This makes me very happy. 🥹❤️
