Trauma Bonds
I was recently on Instagram when I came across a post discussing trauma bonds and what they do to you. It outlined the effects of them, and what happens during one- and after you leave one. I tear up as I write this because I personally don’t open up much about myself and the traumaContinue reading “Trauma Bonds”
Hard work, Luck, and Manifesting
Moments ago, I was walking my dog thinking about how hard work and manifesting something in my life has played out for me. As I was pondering this topic, I looked up towards the trees that blocked my full view of the moon- in hopes that I would start this blog out with something inspirational to say. But as much as I’d like to open up with something enlightening about the moonlight, about how enchanting it appeared and tie in a stoic metaphor- humor won and here I am describing my thought process.
Change Your Narrative
She recognizes that she needs to change her narrative. In order to move forward and be happy, she needs to let go of a lot of sh** that has weighed her down and attempts to trip her up. Yes, trauma has given her a whole lot of resilience and perspective. However, she doesn’t owe her trauma a damn thing.
Cherish the Journey
It is annoying to wait. It is annoying to have to use patience.
Life. Am I Right?
Have you ever just wanted something so bad, have seen it only with a tunnel-vision perspective, then gotten really annoyed something did not pan out how you wanted it to go?
Conversations We Can’t Have
Our lives deliver us people that unfortunately, it just doesn’t work out the way we wish it did with them. The conversations we can’t have means that someone is either no longer in our lives for any particular reason.
I’ll Get By
Personal growth is flat-out a witch sometimes. We have put so much work into ourselves to make ourselves better in the ways we chose. However, we sometimes still get hit with the issues that we barely scrubbed by on getting over.
Hello You. Yes, You. Don’t Stop.
Don’t stop looking through the windows on gloomy, rainy days.
Then walk away before you have a chance to see the rainbow once the storm has calmed.
Overthinking: Stop Saying It
Who else has been told their entire lives that they ‘need to stop overthinking?’ I’ve come to dislike the term, overthinking.
Use Your Voice
People are scared of people who are empowered. They are even more scared of people who are not afraid of using their empowerment to better the world around them.
Hello, My Love
Hello, My Love As every night closes, and a new morning begins- a fresh start begins, my love. All of the tears you have shed, all of the journal pages you have filled, are all a part of the bigger picture in becoming who you are today. Somedays, you feel like certain parts of yourContinue reading “Hello, My Love”
Happily, Not Sad Anymore
As the world changes its seasons, so do our inner thoughts and feelings.
An Emotional Abuser
We all have skeletons in our closets. Things we aren’t proud of, or too embarrassed to tell.
We curl up at night and replay those situations that feel like demons looming over our beds. The fear returns for a brief moment because at that time, our emotions were beaten down like a hammer hits a tent stake- that won’t go into the hard ground.
Version of Peace
Peace is a word that I have been searching for most of my life. At times, I felt so far away from what I thought was peace, that I just accepted the fact that it was a word that was not going to describe my life.
