Happiness
One day you will realize that happiness is not what your house looks like, but how you love the people within its walls. Happiness is not finding success by a certain time, but finding something you love so much, time itself seems to disappear. Happiness is not thinking you have earned the world’s approval, but waking up each day and feeling so at peace within your own skin, quietly anticipating the day ahead, unconcerned with how you are perceived. Happiness is not having the best of everything, but the ability to make the best of anything. Happiness is knowing you did what you could with what you were given. Happiness…

When Life Breaks You
“When life breaks you, it is because you are ready to be put back together differently. Every piece of you that feels shattered is a piece that will find a new place, a new purpose, a new meaning. Trust that the cracks are where the light gets in. And sometimes, in our brokenness, we find our greatest wholeness. We find the courage to rebuild, to reimagine, to redefine what it means to be strong. You are not broken; you are breaking through.” — Unknown

Sometimes We Love
Sometimes we love And our hearts are broken We dream And our hopes are shattered We wish And our desires are unfulfilled We give freely And are left empty-handed And we care for others And aren’t loved in return And those who we once most admired and valued Do not reciprocate our affection. Sometimes we undergo a process of loss and heartbreak And are left feeling broken And lacking hope As we fail to realise That we are not destined to remain stuck in this cycle indefinitely And that in life Whoever lets go of us Leads us home Whoever rejects us Empowers us to embrace ourselves fully And someone’s…

Are you truly lazy
Are you truly lazy Or are you simply in the process of resting and recovering from all that you have been through? Are you truly procrastinating Or are you simply prioritising what your soul finds more valuable, enriching and uplifting? Are you truly sad Or are you simply purging and releasing your emotions? Are you truly broken Or are you simply in the process of healing from past experiences and rebuilding your life? Are you truly antisocial Or are you simply undergoing a period of self-discovery and learning to fully embrace and enjoy your own company? Are you truly naive Or do you simply have an open heart and look…

You cannot save anyone
You cannot save anyone. You can be present with them, offer your groundedness, your sanity, your peace. You can even share your path with them, offer your perspective. But you cannot take away their pain. You cannot walk their path for them. You cannot give answers that are right for them, or even answers they can digest right now. They will have to find their own answers. ~Jeff Foster (Book: The Way of Rest https://amzn.to/3YMoy2C )

It took me a long time to realize
My mom had a lot of problems. She did not sleep and she felt exhausted. She was irritable, grumpy, and bitter. She was always sick, until one day, suddenly, she changed. The situation was the same, but she was different. One day my dad said to her: – I’ve been looking for a job for three months and I haven’t found anything, I’m going to have a few beers with friends. My mom replied: – It’s okay. My brother said to her: – Mom, I’m doing poorly in all subjects at the University … My mom replied: – Okay, you will recover, and if you don’t, well, you repeat the…

HIGHER SELF – Awareness..
HIGHER SELF – Awareness.. ‘I am slowly learning that some people are not good for me, no matter how much I love them. I deserve someone who is gentle and kind, because my soul is getting tired. Realizing that I deserve something good is one of the first steps.” “I’m Slowly Learning That I Don’t Have To React To Everything That Bothers Me~~ I’m slowly learning that the energy it takes to react to every bad thing that happens to you drains you and stops you from seeing the other good things in life. I’m slowly learning that I’m not going to be everyone’s cup of tea and I won’t…
