It’s time to destroy the false views of yourself that keep you insecure, stuck and miserable. Drop perfectionism and learn to love yourself unconditionally. Trust the darkness and move in total confidence that you are being guided to the right place. - Dec 31, 2023, S.S.

i just know because of the shitty middle aged woman demographic Amanda Abbington is going to do well on strictly come dancing, but i really hope however well she does Layton Williams does better so young LGBTQ+ people can see that they’re allowed to turn up, to take up space to be present and seen. We’re allowed to win because fuck hate
''I think midlife is when the universe gently places her hands upon your shoulders, pulls you close, and whispers in your ear:
I’m not screwing around. It’s time. All of this pretending and performing – these coping mechanisms that you’ve developed to protect yourself from feeling inadequate and getting hurt – has to go.
Your armor is preventing you from growing into your gifts. I understand that you needed these protections when you were small. I understand that you believed your armor could help you secure all of the things you needed to feel worthy of love and belonging, but you’re still searching and you’re more lost than ever.
Time is growing short. There are unexplored adventures ahead of you. You can’t live the rest of your life worried about what other people think. You were born worthy of love and belonging. Courage and daring are coursing through you. You were made to live and love with your whole heart. It’s time to show up and be seen.''

Hebrews 11:3 (NLT) -
By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God’s command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen.
Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day. It’s about the choice to show up and be real. The choice to be honest. The choice to let our true selves be seen.
Sometimes, the greatest act of self-love is simply allowing yourself to be loved by others.
Sometimes, the greatest act of self-love is simply allowing yourself to be seen in all that you are.
There’s a Hellertown, PA that I passed on my drive to Connecticut, and I just need the destiel shippers to know that I had to think of them twice. Once on my way, and once in my way back. I see you. I see all of you.
HEY ALL YOU BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE 18+! JUST A REMINDER TO GO VOTE TODAY WHILE YOU STILL CAN!!! YOUR VOTE REALLY FUCKING MATTERS IN THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS, ESPECIALLY ABOUT PROP 1 FOR WOMEN'S REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS!
2 Corinthians 4:18 (NLT) -
So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.
