I hope you find your way back to yourself. to the version of you that you miss, to a version of you that you recognize and identify with. I hope you meet happy again.

part of being positive is accepting pain and negative emotions. it’s impossible to be happy all the time, and it’s healthy to let yourself feel whatever you’re feeling. there’s nothing wrong with being sad, angry, upset. allow yourself to feel the pain, to grieve, to hurt, but also know that you have the strength to navigate what you’re feeling and that you’ll get through it.

it’s so weird when I randomly stumble across one of my posts on another platform. a tiktok with a bunch of uplifting quotes came on fyp today and BAM there was one of my posts. some of my words! out in the world. being spread around. feels so good man

don’t shrink yourself to fit in with people you’ve outgrown

[sunflorally]

did you have a bad day, or did you only notice the things that went wrong because that’s what your brain was looking for reinforcement on, and you hyper focused on those things for the rest of the day?

hey have you told your best friends that you love them lately? you should do that if you haven’t

[sunflorally]

find people you feel safe being a burden to. we all have to lean on people sometimes. the point isn’t to never have a problem, to never want to rant, to never need help. the point is to find the ones you can go to with your troubles and know they don’t see you as less.

just because your body doesn’t “fit the standard” doesn’t mean it’s not worthy of kindness and love. I bet you’ve never looked at your friend and determined how much you love them by what size they are. so why do you do that to yourself?

[sunflorally]

a small step in the right direction is still a step in the right direction. make some progress today. however much.

[sunflorally]

can you just believe in yourself and see what happens? you’re spent all this time being unsure, but really, where does that get you? have faith in yourself. you are more capable than you think

[sunflorally]

extend grace to yourself. grant yourself peace, compassion, forgiveness, understanding. give yourself the space to mess up and learn from your mistakes. you owe it to yourself to let your kind heart be kind to you as well.

no one deserves your love more than you do

[sunflorally]

center your life around your own desires. don’t listen to people who try to tell you what they think you should be, what they think you should do, what they think you should spend money, or time, or effort on. you won’t ever feel complete if you chase other people’s dreams, or subscribe to other people’s expectations. live for you

[sunflorally]

make a point to do something for your inner child today. you used to love drawing but haven’t had the time recently? doodle something, make some art. haven’t had your favorite flavor of ice cream in a while? treat yourself. do something that would make younger you happy. do something for your soul today

[sunflorally]

it’s time to let go of the people you know aren’t good for you. you have to release those that constantly bring negativity into your life. it may hurt to say goodbye, but they’re dragging you down. set them free. cultivate peace. elevate

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but there’s no deadline for the things you do in life outside of societal expectation. it may feel like there is, but there really isn’t. there’s no set time frame to finish anything. you don’t have to have x, y, or z accomplished by a certain time. there is no countdown. you can graduate high school a year later than you intended. you don’t have to be done with college by 22. you don’t have to buy a house by 26. you don’t have to achieve all your goals before you’re 30. you don’t have to get married just because everyone else is. you don’t have to have children before you’re ready. you can wait. you can try again later. you can finish some other time. and it’s okay if you do: everyone has different timelines, different paths. what is right for someone else may not be right for you. just because someone else did something by whatever age, doesn’t mean you are a failure if you don’t. just because you don’t meet a milestone when you think you’re supposed to, doesn’t mean you never will. there’s not an expiration date. be patient with yourself, give yourself some grace. slow down.

you don’t talk too much. you aren’t too loud. you aren��t too needy. you aren’t too sensitive. you aren’t too this, or that. you aren’t too much anything. you will never be too much: you are you, and you are allowed to take up space. you are allowed to exist however you choose.
