Maslow’s hierarchy of needs was written for people to embody them. Only when you are secure in yourself you can find fulfillment. Focus on your physical needs & building a secure sense of self, the rest is given once you work on those. Why? You’re no longer performing for validation when you feel safety Besos 💋

take action in 2026. those things (your dreams) you’ve been putting off because of whatever xyz bullshit reason, now’s the time to make them happen. we owe it to ourselves to live our lives to the fullest, so do it NOW.

only been here a week and i already ditched my other ad-ridden socials. the social dynamics on this app are sooo different than what i’m used to. it’s like they want us all to actually show our real personality and connect. thanks @cal!

My friend was out partying for new years and messaged me “they played bring me the horizon and I was like I need milly” just after midnight and at the end of the day everything will always be okay because I am loved.

Journal prompt: How can you feel more confident if you’re not the stereotypical standard of beauty? If you want to improve your looks: - be active - focus on your sleep & nutrition. If you want to feel better about yourself: - focus on your energy, your values. - cultivate your inner world. - learn how to feel safety within yourself. Confidence is the blend of both.

Honestly a new year is not so much of a celebration but a relief. A breathe of what I could hope for is a slow calm start to coping and carrying on to find a purpose. I wish everyone joy this year in what ever form. ✌🏾

Someone needs to put a blanket ban on actors getting noticeable cosmetic work bro. How the fuck am I meant to believe you’re genuinely a person in like fkn 1800 when you have fuck ass veneers and filler. Get OUT of my face

You are not seeking love, What you seek is safety. Because when you feel safe, love is given. You no longer stay performing in relationships, there’s no more chase or avoidance. You’re safe, and you can build anything meaningful when you feel safe. Ask yourself, what would it be like if I felt safe being myself? Cry it out if you need to.

Someone on Grindr said ‘invite me to the cottage’ and I stupidly replied ‘don’t have a cottage unfortunately’… I only now, a day later, understood the Heated Rivalry reference 🙃 I swear I’m not that terrible at flirting

Still -40 F, now with ice fog thrown into the mix for flavor. For one solid month. It hasn’t been this consistently cold in at least a decade… it’s kind of surreal that a normalcy that I haven’t seen/felt in years is still going strong, and the first time since I was a teenager that I’ve wanted warmer weather to come back this badly… 🥶

REAL TALK #13 "I will never understand why guys are not able to cancel a date instead of standing somebody up. Is it cowardness? Is it shame? Is it just ignorance and disrespect? It happened to me three times in a row now, with three different guys. Two of these guys did not even have the courage to respond to me when I asked for what happened. The third guy: "Why so much drama?" Even though I don't want to get bitter from these experiences, I do feel that it changes something within me."

You let me breathe, Even when I can’t see myself. For the nights I felt too full, Too heavy, A burden in my own mind. Knowing what was better for me, Was telling me to stop. To take it in, And come back when I was ready. I couldn’t see that from the start, Thought it was another careless thing to say. But I took your advice to heart, Ended a call, Made it short but sweet. Slept on it, Woke up, Feeling like me again. You were right, And maybe I was too blind, Too in my head, Stubborn to think I needed to take a pause. Thank you for trying to do what’s best, For telling me this wasn’t right. That me feeling this way, Could, And should, Be worked out in other ways.

Thinking of swapping LA for SF! 🌉 I’m looking for a community where values feel a bit more aligned. Do you think it’s a smart move, or should I stay put? • A. Total upgrade. Go for it! • B. Grass is always greener. Stay in LA. • C. Depends on what values you're chasing. Hit me with your advice/experiences! 🏳️‍🌈
