i don’t think people understand how much of life is grief. not just people dying, but losing the version of yourself you thought you’d become. grieving the city you had to leave. the friends you lost not in argument, but in silence. the summer that will never come back. the feeling that maybe you peaked at 12 when you were reading books under the covers and believing in forever

watching lolita 1997 on some sketchy website as a 13 year old was truly life changing

propaganda a lot of y’all should fall for:

whispering “thanku” to your tea or coffee before the first sip.

telling your friends you love them when they least expect it. especially then.

googling “what kind of flower blooms twice” at 3 a.m. to feel hopeful again

deleting apps every two weeks and calling it a spiritual reset.

naming your plants like they’re ur friends. apologizing when you forget to water them.

believing ur younger self would still think you’re cool. even on your worst days.

using perfume before bed. for no one. for you.

making eye contact with yourself in the mirror when you cry. giving the pain an audience.

taking selfies when you feel awful. proof you existed even when the light wasn’t flattering :-)

I don't know how to behave

I don't know what to do when I'm at a family function

Not talking is not allowed

Talking too much is frowned upon

They'll give you looks if you get too friendly

Call you out if you don't socialize at all

What exactly is asked of me?

You are allowed to outgrow yourself...

Even if change is painful at times, it is necessary.

Change means you're growing. You're discovering new things, and learning more about people, seasons & uncomfortable territories.

That's why keeping a teachable heart is important. When you open yourself up to the constant pursuit of learning, growing & building new things, you are also consistently exercising your faith to believe in greater things. There is more for you out there - don't settle! You're meant to be a better version of yourself
