when people ask me how i've built my following, i tell them this: i work REALLY hard, i TRY to be good and kind to people 100% of the time, i read a lot, i accept my failures, i try and remain present, and i try to live and love with intention.
keep looking for ways to be a blessing to and for others, and you’ll be astounded at how the blessings circle back to you. astounded.
we are all seeking, all searching, all journeying and walking towards a greater version of ourselves, each in our own, unique ways - be gentle.
your happiness is not at all dependent on others acceptance of it, star. know that.
you will have to continue to kill old behaviors to allow new blessings to flourish
no one is any more larger or wiser or better than you - we all journey differently, and to varying degrees. do not judge your process, please.
do not look for healing at the feet of those who broke you.
My prayer: that you wake up tomorrow better than you did today. Peace and light and love to all.
your truth will not be for everyone. please, live in it anyway.
owning our pain allows us the grace to move through it without blaming others for its significance in our lives.
even when it is hard, bitter, perculiar, difficult and unsavory, give thanks. live and be thankful; live in humility. say grace, and be grateful. even still.
god does not weigh the value of a star based on proximity; so shall we never compare the journey of our own light to that of another’s
how we view the world, and view others in it, can either be a door, or a box.
all that to say, we should define our truths. but, we should investigate their origins, our biases, and question their existence, too.
please know, you are more than your trauma, and the circumstances surrounding it.
i’ve said “no” to a lot of things, to make room for my spirit to say “yes” to the right things.
there are a lot of blessings i know i missed out on because "i wasn't ready" or because it was "too scary." please, don't be that person.
just because it’s an opportunity, does not mean you have to say “yes.” is it right for you and the parties involved? does it speak to you? listen to your spirit, man.
dream it work for it claim it repeat.
