“People think that intimacy is about sex. But intimacy is about truth. When you realize you can tell someone your truth, when you can show yourself to them, when you stand in front of them and their response is “you’re safe with me” - that’s intimacy.”

— The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo: A novel by Taylor Jenkins Reid

No one else cares for your success, so you have to care. You have to force yourself to get up early, you have to force yourself to turn your phone off and revise, you have to force yourself to workout, you have to care for the whole world because no one else cares until they start seeing results. And they won’t ever see your results if you don’t care enough first. It’s your life, they are your goals, your dreams, it will be your success but it has to be your effort and your work first and foremost x

You need someone who wants to be there when it’s messy and when it’s hard, not just when it’s fun and when it’s convenient. And you need someone who chooses you when it might not be the easiest choice. And you need someone who would rather do nothing with you than anything in the world with someone else.

LET YOUR ART BE UGLY!!! LET YOUR WRITING BE BAD!!! DANCE OFFBEAT!!! SING OFF KEY!!! LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO LET YOUR FEAR OF NOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH PREVENT YOU FROM LEARNING AND ENJOYING NEW THINGS!!!

Easy.

“...but you’re different. That’s what I told my friends. That this is different. Its so easy...”

People said when you found the right one, it’ll be easy.

Easy.

It’s definitely not a word that people, including myself, will use to describe me. I’m completely the opposite of it which leads to the fact that nothing is ever easy for me. I’m not complaining about it because I do feel that nothing worth having comes easy and I’m completely fine with it.

But if that’s how the world works, I guess I’ll never find the right one 🤷🏻‍♀️

ps; I can never understand people that fall in (and out of) love so easily like do their hearts have on and off switch?

pps; the quoted one is not mine.

Let people be

My dad - A friend said to me, “You’re 60 and learning Mandarin? At this age, you should be learning Arabic instead so you can understand Al-Quran even better.” The funny thing is, this fella is 60 plus and did he learn Arabic? Obviously he didn’t! Seriously, shhh!

The point here is that some people like to criticise or belittle people’s efforts in improving themselves.

“It’s early in the year, the gym is gonna be full, let’s see how long that’ll last” “lol you don’t need a new year to start something” “oh suddenly people are all organised thanks to Marie Kondo lol”

Listen, at least they took the first step to be better and they pushed themselves to do something. You think its easy to break a habit? And it’s, honestly, even harder to start a new one. Getting out of your comfort zone is never an easy task but they did it anyway. Oh wait, you wouldn’t know it because you’re too comfortable living in yours. You see, while you’re busy criticising and belittling their efforts, they are making progress and improving themselves. Maybe it won’t last, but they tried and from time to time they’ll pick up the courage to try again. They can’t change overnight but at least they’re taking baby steps while you’re just there, still at the same spot, doing what you do “best” - criticising others.

So let people be! As long as they’re doing good things and improving themselves, even if its just following a trend, just shut your mouth and let them be! But since you’re so comfortable living in your bubbles, just practice this, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all 👌🏻

ps; my dad did learn Arabic years ago and its up to him to learn whatever language he wants at whatever age he is.
