"I wish someone would have told me that sacrificing my boundaries in the name of empathy wasn't noble. I wish they would have warned me that all it would do is make me a safe house for other people's demons. I think empathy has to be taught in two parts: how to put yourself in someone's shoes and see the hurt they were given that made them hurt you and how to understand that you still don't deserve what they're doing. Their scars are no excuse for the wounds they give to you. Their inability to heal is not something you can fix if you stay and continue to let them treat you in all these unacceptable ways. If you give them excuses and safe places for their darkness instead of demanding they do better, the only thing you are teaching them is that you'll put up with it. We want to live in a world where hurt people don't hurt people, but the reality is, that starts with you standing up for yourself and not accepting disrespect. You chose to heal. You chose to take the darkness the world gave you and still be a light. You chose kindness despite the pain you received, they can too." -via @wordsofajay

Many a times... we feel, think and sense the changes in our lives. Sometimes happy, at times indifferent and occasionally dull.

How a snake sheds the skin and a caterpillar undergoes metamorphasis turning into a butterfly. We too as all living beings with complex minds are shedding the phases of our lives. Outgrowing some emotions, and the uncertainties that we experience today are okay.

Just fueling your inner self is alright, at your time. It doesn't have to be today.

Taking a break is not giving up. You do not just wake up and become the butterfly.
- growth is a process

Sending whomever in need - motivating energy, kindness to your soul, and loving vibes.

I'm asking everyone to please keep my cousin in your prayers & thoughts. She was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver it's stage 4. She is in need of a liver transplant and she's on the list, but if she doesn't get this she will definitely die. She has lupus and the medicine she was taking for it one of the side effects can be liver damage aka cirrhosis and sad to say this happened to her so she's very sick. She has 4 or 5 kids I wanna say I can't remember but I feel so bad for them. My heart hurts for them. So please pray she gets this liver transplant. ❤️ Thank you all.

I am sorry you are dealing with some inner turmoils. You are not alone. All of us have at some point in life have felt that way.

Its okay. It's the world's job to judge, why would you start to take their job. Be kind to yourself. Your longest relationship is after all with your own-self.

Everyone has a limit and when you don't respect that limit you will cross boundaries which will result in consequences you didn't want. Therefore, you must always ask yourself if you are willing to bear the consequences, if you are not, don't test the limits, don't cross the boundaries... respect is crucial. Knowing how far to go is a rare character trait that few people practice.
