There is an old saying when life gives you lemons. However, I will say seize the day. Make it what you want it. Keep creating life the way you envision. Keep taking the steps that drive you closer to your purpose. Often times, people see the final creation and believe it was easy. We know a lot of work goes into making our lives work. Keep doing the work. Be victorious!
Follow YOUR rules of engagement. Don’t allow anyone to alter what you know is best for you. Know your worth, stay the course. Dismiss any and everything that doesn’t fit
It’s important to have self awareness and realize what you want in life and relationships. Often times, we haven’t spent enough time to figure it out and we are left without answers. Take the time, do the work and invest in yourself. Be bold, be expressive!
The soft girl era and the evolution of the delicate flower extend to love and relationships. Chivalry is not dead, it may be on life support. But, if that’s what you want, hold out until it’s resurrected. When a man chooses you, it doesn’t mean that you have to immediately acquiesce. Study the situation and make sure that you both can contribute to each others happiness
There are a lot of aspects of doing the work: Protecting your peace, maintaining your mental health, being assertive and so on. We must remember not to do the work in a microcosm, we should consider it cross training! Cross training to establish a sense of wholeness: Spirit, mind, and body. Persevere, keep going, don’t stop striving because together, we will get there. #boundaries #evolve #expression #expressyourfeelings #growth #healingjourney #lovethejourney #selfexpression #relationship #journey #softgirlera #loveyourself #putyourselffirst #beher#shero
