One thing I learned in my 20s is to never ever beg for reciprocation because it’s either you give it to me freely or I simply won’t be apart of your life. That’s it.

this is so heart warming

once you develop that “it is what it is” mentality, a lot of things stop bothering you

literally trying is never a bad thing!! worried about failure? at least you put yourself out there! don’t think you’re good enough? you may be surprised! literally please consistently always take initiative, chase and conquer your dreams, take that chance

don’t allow ur insecurities to create ur reality. no one is “too good” for you. Nothing is “too far” and everything you imagined yourself doing as a child is within reach. that’s the secret difference between your adult self and your child self; your child self doesn’t allow insecurities to dictate their day. everything can happen for you if you work for it. anyone can be yours if you allow your true love to shine from your heart. The world is here for the experiencing.

I have so much love and respect for women who are honest about their own loneliness but also find the good in it like when audrey hepburn said “I have to be alone very often. I’d be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That’s how I refuel” and when charlotte bronte said “I care for myself. The more solitary, the more friendless, the more unsustained I am, the more I will respect myself” and when jenny slate said “I think I’ve come to terms with the fact that there will always be a ribbon of loneliness running through who I am. But that’s why I want to do comedy, and why I want to connect with people. You can use that ribbon to be a part of a finer tapestry, or you can choke yourself out with it! Your choice!” and when mary oliver said “whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh & exciting - over & over announcing your place in the family of things”

women know hunger too well & not even in the sense of food/appetite (though that is painfully prevalent in so many of us) but hunger for identity, to be heard, desperate to be seen & then to not be seen at all, to simply be. a hunger that feels all consuming & then we end up devouring ourselves from the outside in just in order to deny our appetite for life & love. to hide our wants & desires. it aches all of the time & it’s so tiring i just want to feel full i want to feel satisfied with myself my body my existence
