I saw a post on Instagram earlier that said, "It's hard work making yourself into something your mother can’t stand to look at," and it made me think about a post I made a few weeks ago. I truly believe that if you were raised by someone who hated you or who was jealous of you, you have to free yourself of your need for maternal validation and do what it takes to become someone you like instead of chasing after the approval of someone who should’ve always seen your worth.

I’m of the same opinion when it comes to women who were raised by mothers who competed with them for love or male attention. It’s wildly harmful to be raised by a woman who’s obsessed with the idea of having a daughter but is only capable of loving men or a woman who’s centered her entire identity around motherhood and can’t come to terms with the fact that her child is now an adult, capable of making her own decisions, and isn’t interested in being controlled or manipulated.

I’m very close to someone who was raised by a woman who was always "sick”. The way I remember her mother, she was always in bed, never capable of interacting with or connecting with her children, unhappily married, and really a rather unpleasant sort of person. One of the things my friend has struggled with for a long time is staying out of a pattern where, like her mother, she gets into bed, puts on the TV, binge eats, and sleeps for days, and I’ve been proud to see her shake off years of neglect and do what she’s had to do to make herself proud instead of waiting around for a person who was never capable of loving her to have a change of heart and start validating her.

There’s a Kate Bush quote I love that goes like this: "The only person with you all your life is you. Your parents die. Things inside you die—illusions, gushes of personality. Only you can sort yourself out. Yourself might not be all you need, but it's all you've got," and I do believe that it is your responsibility to figure out what you want and what you know will never happen so that you can be happy with where you are in the world, do what you love, and live a life you’re passionate about and proud of instead of trying to exist in a way that pleases people who have already been young and had their chance to experience life.

True love is real. I don’t care what anyone says. I’m glad I never gave up on it despite being treated like trash while trying to find it. 💝 God’s got him, me and us. 🥹

Amidst all of the news going on right now, don't miss the story about how there are descendants of extraterrestrial-human hybrids living in the Colorado Rockies and apparently they're overlooked because even though they're unusually tall and distinctive-looking, nobody has reported them because everyone just assumes they're Nordic.

Oh, and also the CIA has been using Ancestry.com and 23andMe DNA databases to search for irregular or non-human DNA.

I should not be thinking about death as often as I do, but there are way too many sobering reminders of how fleeting life can be.
