encouragement

Here's a word of encouragement to you. Yes, YOU! You matter, your concerns matter, your pain matters. It's true that you often get overlooked or are misunderstood. Sometimes you get blamed. You may even feel guilty for feeling like you make things hard for people or "not doing enough." After a while, that gets to be an extra burden to carry. As hard as it all is -- and "hard" barely begins to describe it. More like impossible. I know because it's My experience too.

But here's the thing. You're doing more than your best and you're so much stronger than anyone will even know. You accomplish more by getting out of bed than some people accomplish all day. You're here, and you're doing the impossible. Maybe you need someone to tell you they care, they see you, they understand. Maybe you wonder if anyone cares. Take this as that sign. You matter. I care, and I believe in you. Thank you for being you. Much Love.

The best choice of letting something go I've made was my previous two workplaces. They taught me invaluable life lessons, but it was time to go after a year or a year and a half, and I am thankful I did. If I had stayed, I would have missed out on the current wonderful opportunities I have. #thankful #Opportunity #Reflection #encouragement

I almost dated a guy who found my relentless foot boucing really annoying. Its a coping mechanism I adopted from my Mom. I do it even when I don't necessarily feel anxious, its just comforting. My current boyfriend actually finds it just as comforting as I do. Keep surrounding yourself with people who care. He knows it helps me and he put in the effort to try to understand. Just very thankful for my support system.
