Self care...

You can only do so much. Be happy with what you've accomplished. ❤️

READ THIS AND READ IT AGAIN.

"Your trauma made you stronger."

You are not broken.

If someone comes to you and tells you they're struggling, don't: *Compare your problems to theirs *Minimize their problems *Make them feel like they can't trust you *Tell them someone else has it worse *Tell them it's all in their head *Tell them to just get over it

You don't have to be a prisoner of your past. It was a lesson, not a life sentence.

I hope the time comes when you are able to see that you're worth more than gold.

If you're not okay, it's okay to say that. If you're struggling, it's okay to say that. If you feel helpless, it's okay to say that. If you feel lonely, it's okay to say that. Your emotions are valid. And you can talk about them, it's okay. ❤️❤️

Be kind today.

Candles are beautiful. And so are sunsets. And so are flowers. And so are Christmas lights. And so are beaches. And so are you. And so are you.

There is no set number on days that you're allowed to heal. You don't have a time limit. It's not, you have 4 weeks to get over this and then you can never think about it again. Healing takes time. Years maybe. It's okay, go at your own pace.

List of healthy reminders everyone could use: Don't point out things people can't change in 5 minutes or less Tell people you love them more Remember that everyone has bad days Shrinking someone else won't make you feel big It's ok to feel emotions for longer than 5 minutes

You call it one step forward, two steps back. I call it dancing.

Your life makes someone else's a little bit better. You might not know who, but it does. ❤️

Sometimes, doing what is best for you doesn't include keeping people in your life that make you feel bad about yourself. Even if you love them.
