After leaving a wedding weekend I always think I want a relationship to experience love like that, but then my heart thinks “hmm, better not”

something I find extremely beautiful and healing about adult relationships - new & old - is that they are always finding parts of you to complement. what I mean by that is, for those of us who do not necessarily meet or relate to European beauty standards, we all share the lived experience not being the most attractive person in the room. so receiving those complements from individuals who are none the wiser of our own insecurities - they allow us to see ourselves in a newly formed light. that was a very long winded way of saying thank you for helping heal wounds that have always been there ♥

what exercises have you done for shadow work? Side note: I’ve been sober (from my substance of choice) and I haven’t been counting for how long, everytime I crave it I say “I don’t need it.” And that’s my “fix.”

COLLECTIVE HEALING #7 "I am currently being trained to become a systemic coach and psychodrama facilitator. One of the most fundamental learnings so far: the people who seem to keep on top of everything are the ones who struggle and suffer the most. We are all hustling and struggling with life. It's part of our journey. What are you struggling with right now? Let us uncover some shared experiences."

I feel like good moments and some people are like the stages of a day; meeting someone new it’s sunrise, intoxicatingly beautiful, mesmerized by it and all it’s color after the darkness of the night, starting to find comfort in them is like the rest of the day, the comes the high, when it either becomes to good to be true, the lastest rays of sunshine, warming you and warning you that it’s almost over, then comes the sudden hit of darkness after they’ve left, and at some point in the night where the only lights comes from the moon; where you find yourself drowning in nostalgia.

At what point does ‘we’re seeing each other’ become ‘we’re together’? Is it a number of dates, weeks, months…

We are all worthy of love and intimacy. The value that we have for ourselves is not diminished just because someone doesnt see you. We are all valuable people. Outside of abs,face cards, and money.

It feels so rare to find a corner of the internet where the noise fades away and all that's left is peace, love, and understanding. The anxiety, trauma, and constant debates of other platforms can be overwhelming, but here—this queer space—everything clicks. I'm so thankful to be part of a community where I can show up as my authentic self and not feel drained or attacked. This is what it feels like to exist without the constant weight of the world on your shoulders. Sending love! It’s a reminder that we can have spaces that uplift, not overwhelm. ✨🌈

I’ve always hated when people posted shit like “ I cut my bangs... In my psychosis era😜” but it's now the third time I've cut my hair after having it long for years, and I can say that none of these haircuts were done on a clear mind with full mental capacity. Each time it felt so chaotic and simply too much that once it's done it feels like I wasn't present at all.
