one of the most toxic things i’ve ever done is ignore the bad in someone because i love them

[noreenindie]

I think, being an average and not so good looking person, you tend to be more sensitive about other people's needs and feelings because you have been through people not being able to meet your needs all your life and you know how it feels to be left unwanted every single time you express your emotions.

Therefore you develop empathy and a sense of care towards anyone close to you. That, most self obsessed people don't. You never leave them feeling unwanted for you have felt miserable because of that sole feeling all your life. You start putting their feelings, their needs ahead of yourself.

And i don't know if it's noble, or stupid. But it's the way it is..

Your purpose in life is not to love yourself but to love being yourself.

If you goal is to love yourself, then your focus is directed inward toward yourself, and you end up constantly watching yourself from the outside, disconnected, trying to summon the “correct” feelings towards yourself or fashion yourself into something you can approve of.

If your goal is to love being yourself, then your focus is directed outward towards life, on living and making decisions based on what brings you pleasure and fulfillment.

Be the subject, not the object. It doesn’t matter what you think of yourself. You are experiencing life. Life is not experiencing you.

“Today, I am grateful for the beauty of being human and for the ability to express what I feel through smiles and tears and warm hugs. Today, I am grateful for the rising of the sun and the light that seeps in the broken parts of my soul that reminds me that I can be healed. Today, I am grateful for the sight of trees, the smell of flowers and the touch of everything that carries love and grace that makes the world a safe place to exist. Today, I am grateful for being gentle with my pain that teaches me that there is so much growth to be found in accepting where I am now & loving my way towards where I want to be.”

— juansen dizon, Today, I am grateful

Note to self :

Fight your own battles at your own pace and strategy.

You don't need someone else's pity.

you have no respect for women if you have conditions based on their state of womanhood that can take away your respect for them. whether they’re trans, whether they’re a woc, whether they go by he, whether they’re a sex worker, whether they love other women romantically and sexually, whether they’re disabled, whether you see them as “aggressive”, whether they’re outspoken on misogyny or racism or transphobia or sex worker issues or ableism, and even if they’re outspoken on things that seem trivial to you. listen to women of all perspectives. and no thor did not write this
