When we've been through trauma, our brain gets good at hearing scary things rumbling in the distance.
It doesn't need to hear "That's nothing, you stupid brain."
It needs to hear "I know you're scared, & it's okay to be scared-- but you are safe & I am here."

Be kind to yourself in quiet, little ways today. Even if you think you don't "deserve" it. Even if it's awkward. Even if you feel guilty.
No attacking yourself today & no abandoning yourself today. No doing your bullies' & abusers' dirty work for them.
Not today.

Pay attention to what makes you happy. Trauma has a way of convincing us what makes us happy doesn't count, or doesn't matter, or is "stupid"-- but I'm telling you: what you like & what you're passionate about hold profound keys to your healing.

As much as of a downer conversation as it is - we must start talking to our older parents/grandparents about their long term care. The situation we’re in with my grandmother is a result of poor planning. We didn’t have a plan - now she doesn’t want to move & she needs FT care.

My friends threw a “make a cocktail based on your job” party—threw this together last min in 2 hrs with help from the Metaverse gods 🥹. An interoperable platform to ‘create your own Cocktail world’…with *passion* fruit vodka & boba pearls (& of course LED #allthethings!! ) 😆 – at Islington, London
