Once you have kids, every snack you buy is a family snack, no matter where you hide it.

The right people never start with "we need to talk."
Your mug is already next to theirs.

Not everyone who smiles with you genuinely wishes you well.
Pay attention to actions, not just words.
Time reveals everything.
Life has given me the benefit of a doubt-
a pause between the fall and the impact,
a thin breath of space where certainty loosens its grip
I learned that truth rarely arrives whole
It comes fractured, asking to be held gently,
asking to be questioned without fear
Life did not promise clarity
It offered something harder and more precious-
the chance to choose...
And so I stand in the doubt
not lost, not weak-
but awake...🌹
The truth is
that this heart of yours
is wide enough
to hold
both the pains of human existence
and the ecstasy of
sublime happiness...
And it also knows how to grieve,
and how to hope at the same time
how to completely shatter
and also,
in the very same breath,
to heal...
It has been doing this for you, since forever.
That is exactly
what it was meant for...🌹
Maybe we should take things just as they are.
Not question. Not doubt.
But believe that everything that happens
was meant to happen.
The good. The bad.
That it all has a reason,
even when we cannot understand.
Perhaps understanding was never the point.🌹

Being an authentic soul means that the world will always feel the urge to test your character. People will try to interfere with your path, only to end up delaying theirs. They confuse your confidence with arrogance and your authenticity with pride. They want to teach you a lesson and 'get you off your high horse'. Yet, your light ends up being their teacher. They're forced to learn that you can't sabotage truth. Your character isn't just a gimmick, it's a frequency. You are who your energy says you are. Your truth was forged in battles. With each battle won, a new layer was added to your personality. While they were busy judging your book by its cover, you were winning yet another battle. Now they're realizing that the depth of you is unknown. You're a mystery
