daily reminders

No, you aren't "behind in life".

But, it's okay to grieve the time you spent surviving. The time spent trying to figure out what was wrong. The time spent healing to become a person again.

It wasn't your fault.

When you've been traumatized in ways that made you question your worth, going through hard or stressful times in the future can make it harder for you to believe in your worth in the present. This is especially true if your present hardships activate past traumas. I'd just like to remind you that your worth is immeasurable and does not diminish even when you cannot see it. You have immense worth. You always did, and you have it still.

say it with me:

you literally aren't equipped to care about every possible opinion on this planet. your mother telling you you're beautiful isn't a lie, your friend telling you your art is cool isn't biased. the fact you have people around you to tell you you're doing great means you've been socialized properly. the douche on instagram or tumblr ain't cooking your dinner, bringing you your pjs to the hospital or giving you a lift home. you aren't psychologically equipped to give a shit about as many opinions as social media expose you to. we have never been more exposed to other ppl's opinions and that's what's making us depressed. you care, and that's natural, we have been programmed to care what other people think. but no one is lying when they say they think you're great, they do think that. remember that, repeat that and embrace that.

why must a sewing job be “good”. is it not enough that i stabbed the fabric with a tiny needle many many times 

You are loved. 🌱  twitter / instagram

You are human. Being human is enough.🤍

Don’t listen to that voice in your head that says you aren’t good enough. Because you are good enough, and will always be.

Look, motherfuckers.

I grew up in a house where I had to cite sources on my feelings. Every subject was an acceptable target for debate. My parents kept telling my sister and I that “not everything is a contest” but that might have been more impactful if my dad wasn’t an Argumentation professor who brought his work home with him.

What I am saying is that I was essentially constructed from the ground up to be the most unpleasant, contentious, prickly, contrarian motherfucker you’re likely to have the misfortune of interacting with this week.

And I have decided that you are a person worthy of love who has had unique experiences that make you special and important. It is my understanding that you are an everyday miracle and your very existence is a gift to the universe.

So nothing you can say will make me believe that you are worthless and useless and incapable of growth and undeserving of kindness. Bullshit. I won’t have it.

Fuck your negativity.

You are a treasure and if you wanna tell me I’m wrong then fucking fight me.

Some bastardous positivity for your friday night.

There’s a bunch of scary shit happening in the world but that doesn’t change the fact that you’re valuable and important and people love you.

I’ve been looking through the notes and the tags on this and I want you all to know: You never deserved the way that people were shitty to you.

No matter what you did you deserved to be treated with respect and allowed your dignity.

And god fucking damn it if you were a child and people treated you like shit you deserved so much better.

You’re worth kindness.

You never had to earn it.

You never had to earn it. It should have been free and expected and if other people wouldn’t give it to you you can have some of mine.

Stop convincing yourself you’re wasting your life away. The time you’ve spent resting and healing was and is necessary. You’re not a waste of a person if you find yourself struggling right now. Healing, recovering, sitting with your pain is foundational. It’s not a waste. You are still whole.
