Vespertine - relating to, occurring in, or active during the evening. The root word, vesper, is Latin for evening or star. It's used in botany and zoology to describe flowers that bloom at night, and animals that are most active at dusk, like bats and owls. In a literary/poetic sense, it evokes evening's quality or mood. Isn't it a beautiful word?

4 reactions I need to hold on to people and things. The moment I losen grip, they are gone - I'm left alone.
This mindset is pretty strong, because it's part of my first experience.
That's nothing to do with willingly distrust. It's key of survival from when I was an infant. That's stuck in my autonome nervous system.
Everything I hold, I hold tight.
It feels impossible to hold it relaxed.
Sadly people rarely get this deep dynamic.

Hi Mighties! 💎
How’s it going? What challenges have you been facing recently? What’s been helping you find comfort, relief, or clarity?
This month — and especially lately — I’ve been finding it challenging to release and process feelings of frustration, annoyance, and anger. These are emotions I’m used to repressing and hiding, so now that I’m allowing myself to feel them, it’s been hard to know what to do with them in my body.
What about you? What have you been finding challenging lately?

How to use your voice when you rose up "being too much"?
As a child I used my voice loud, trying to set boundaries. All I got was being told to silence or disappear - until I got "easy to handle" again.
Yesterday I had a group experience in self defence. Using my voice, shouting "Stay away!!" felt empowering.
The time to use your voice is now.
