You Make Lists In Your Head About What You Want

you-make-lists-in-your-head-about-what-you-want

“You make lists in your head about what you want in a lover, like brown hair and a sweet voice. A sharp mind and a soft heart, a sense of humor that actually makes you laugh like you mean it. This and that. And it’s all bullshit. Because people aren’t lists. And I’ve always wanted to be the person who made someone realize that. I want to come across someone with a list in their head that is nothing like the person 1 ant, and I want to show them what they didn’t even know they were looking for. People who think they know what they want are fooling themselves. Nobody really knows what they want. Not until it’s right in front of them.”

    They do have a place and a meaning too. But most oftenly they are calculations, that set a standard for everythjng. I am in a moment, I need to enjoy it – but the mind first compares it to the benchmarks and then lets us feel. To be happt or not to be.

Men That You Can Grow With

Men That You Can Grow With

For any woman who needs to hear this: there are men who will sit and listen to you while you talk about something that bothered you. There are men out there who will apologize and take accountability. Men that you can grow with. Men that will make you feel appreciated. You don’t have to go through years with somebody who doesn’t know how to communicate and has no emotional intelligence.

You Lose Pieces Of Yourself

You Lose Pieces Of Yourself

Life changes. You lose love. You lose friends. You lose pieces of yourself that you never imagined would be gone.

And then, without you even realizing it, these pieces come back. New love enters. Better friends come along. And a stronger, wiser you are staring back in the mirror.

Honesty Won’t Ruin Real Connections

Honesty Wont Ruin Real Connections

Healing has taught me that honesty won’t ruin real connections. Expressing your feelings won’t cost you anything valuable. Setting boundaries won’t drive away the right people, and authenticity won’t jeopardize genuine relationships. Remember this the next time you feel down because someone withdrew from you for respecting yourself, sharing your feelings, setting boundaries, or holding them accountable.
