    Words

    Word while so easily spoken. Many don't weigh the true weight these words may have. A few simple words can so easily change the day of someone for the better or worse.

    Words spoken in the negative can alter the self-esteem of someone or drive their mental height.

    The funny thing about negative words is they often on carry a weight for the person they are spoken to or about, and rarely any weight for the person that has spoken the words.

    While words in the positive may carry a lesser metaphoric weight, their weight not only carries to the person they are spoken to or about, but they also produce a weight for the person speaking the words. Research has shown with a simple concept of gratitude, the person showing the gratitude receive a positive impact to their own mental health and happiness. So, lets image something we do so much throughout the day, communicate, could have if it was down in a positive manner. You may just increase your own mental health and happiness.

    Checkout my latest blog post for a more in depth discussion on words both in a positive and negative manner.

    “Crazy”…

    Okay, I’ve genuinely felt liberated ever since I just stopped caring so much about the word “Crazy”. It is somehow a bad thing to be, like a terrible quality or trait in a person and yet every DJ you’ll ever hear of will scream “LET’S GO CRAZY!” as if it’s just the rave version of a yoga instructor talking to you about reaching nirvana- as if it is awesome and a cool thing.

    My personal example: I have snacks and some bubbles in my purse, even when I’m not with my nephews or planning on being around kids. I skip down the street and blow bubbles and I don’t care if someone thinks that I’m crazy because of a few reasons:

    1.) They now have a fun occurrence to mention when someone asks about their day. (“Yeah this girl complimented my jacket and then blew bubbles and skipped to the Starbucks a few blocks down, crazy!”)

    2.)If that makes my day better? Awesome. I’m not hurting anyone, I’m not getting hurt because I took those five letters and decided that it’s fine- crazy is crazy, who cares! My ex is calling me crazy? In what way? Am I “Mental”?! Because people say that about funny stuff too! The people you think are crazy at work still get the job done… don’t they? Why not shift gears and have some crazy time (safely!).

    3.) I have a mental illness, if this is how I want to act, how I want to feel seen or heard or just a total 180° for the day as DBT or just because I need a little while to not be me… it’s nobody else’s business.

    Be weird, be crazy, be unique, take power away from words thrown at you like you’re a teenager saying “I know you are but what am I?”

    Enjoy the power of taking back those labels…if people are gonna label you- make it worth their while and get a slice of the fun out of it.

    I have #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder and as for my thoughts on the label of being crazy to those who stigmatize- that’s my philosophy, and it’s helped me through traumas and dramas and everything I have to put up with. So reclaim your crazy! You can be boring later. #Crazy #words #Empowerment #reclaim

    Has the word love lost its meaning? I love you 😍 I love chips 🍟 I love my dog 🐶 Same word used but is the meaning equal? #MidnightMusings #Love

    Love is not something that is a sort of rare commodity, everybody has it. Everybody has love, but it can only come out when it is convinced of the impossibility and the frustration of trying to love itself. This conviction will not come through condemnations, through hating oneself, through calling self love bad names in the universe. It comes only in the awareness that one has no self to love.

    Life and love generate effort, but effort will not generate them. Faith in life, in other people, and in oneself, is the attitude of allowing the spontaneous to be spontaneous, in its own way and in its own time.

    People who exude love are apt to give things away. They are in every way like rivers; they stream. And so when they collect possessions and things they like, they are apt to give them to other people. Because, have you ever noticed that when you start giving things away, you keep getting more?

    Peace can be made only by those who are peaceful, and love can be shown only by those who love. No work of love will flourish out of guilt, fear, or hollowness of heart, just as no valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now.

    Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.

    Love ❤️

    they don't know anything but i get critize here and there, i got judge without them knowing what is in my head, i get critized when i just play along with what they want and if it didnt happen as their wish, that will be my fault, i make harsh decision when all i did was just follow along..saying things that belittling my life, my job,my financial..i know all of that, i dont need them to remind me of those things..i never get what i want that is why i never hoping that everything going to turn out well, i'm used to that, im just unlucky, my life full of unfortunate event, i dont even feel dissapointed anymore but when they turn dissapointment into blaming me it just making me feel more miserable..
