used to be insane about this to the point where I would keep everything I was going thru internal bc of fear of evil eye-and I definitely still believe in it BUT, closed mouths don’t get fed. had a weird mindset shift where I realized OH, telling friends about the fun things ive accomplished and upcoming goals has actually made my life 20x easier and opened up doors I never realized could be there, im not alone - I have people that love and care about me!! It’s still a trusted circle for me but, no more suffering in silence ;p

In the past 6-8 months, I was able to discover a new but “true” side of me by moving out of my hometown and being by myself.
I saw other ppl who inspired me to get more creative around things like my style, or how I carry myself.
There comes a point where you‘ll feel incredibly comfortable in your shell once you analyze what you actually like and what is just an influence of the ppl around you.
U don’t have to move out for that btw but it helped me more than anything else

if i am presented with an intrusive thought about ppl who do not like me for my past mistakes (they're probably not thinking about me key word intrusive) i shift my focus onto my friends who love me for who i have grown into (less unhinged) it is freeing 🕊️

I spent a lot of time this past year contemplating moving out from my apartment that I share with my best friend. We have lived with each other since 2018, and have seen each other in every high and low and stuck together like glue regardless. However, over the past two years, we began to bicker a lot, stopped spending time with each other, and it just felt like there was too much resentment built up between us to continue living in the same space together. Long story short, we both ended up going through a lot of life changes and events in the last year. This all ended up putting things into perspective for the two of us.
One day, after a particularly tough series of unfortunate events in both of our personal lives, we sat down in the living room and finally opened up about all of the things that had been causing tension in our friendship. Both of us were crying the whole time, because it really sucks having to talk about each other's bad choices and shortfalls, but it was a necessary pain in the end. We both came out of the conversation feeling like a load had been taken off our shoulders. Everything that needed to be said had been put out in the open. We both went on through the following months doing our best to work on what we needed to, so that we could continue coexisting in the same space. With time, the resentment we held against the other faded, and we slowly became friends again. Putting in the work was well worth it.
Communication is incredibly important in every aspect of your life. It needs to be prioritized, regardless of how scary it is. We are all human, and all of us fall short. If you never bring up your concerns, you can't expect a person to ever change their behavior.

the internet needs less chaos and self serving agendas, no more arguing with blue check marks for rage bait and getting people paid who cannot stand 10 toes down on their beliefs. reverting back to writing out every single thought and belief I have inside a journal like its my mini manifesto
