You Are Lowering Your Own Worth By Letting People Treat You Like An Option

“How’s life?”

Me:

I literally do not care what the Bible says about any political issue. I am not Christian. Christian scripture should have zero effect on my life or my personal freedoms. 

hi, I saw your primal chic beauty post and want to recommend a deodorant that goes with all the values you speak to and is actually better for your skin and environment and so insanely simple: potassium alum salt!!! I buy mine from Holland and Barret and it is just a rock that I use after the shower and makes my sweat odourless (good thing is that I still sweat so it means it doesn’t block my sweat glands/not antiperspirant)! No harsh chemicals, pure natural source and dare I say economically very friendly. Wanted to contribute to you just like you’re generous with us with your knowledge/advice!

Hi Nonnie! I love this! And for people who sweat lightly potassium alum salt is a wonderful alternative, I enjoyed crystal and Thai 100% Crystal however, with my job I wear very light blue scrubs (Ciel blue, the same color as the residents in Greys Anatomy) day in and day out and I sweat heavily, so for those like me looking to avoid visible sweat marks, I reccommend switching to a non-aersolized solid antiperspirant stick from aersolized products like dry sprays. My Dove 72-hour stick is cruelty free, alcohol free, and PETA approved, and it is gentler but similarly effective to the clinical strength sprays I used to use without the propelants and air pollutants.

For our comfort and our ability to stick with a more sustainable option, we sometimes have to take smaller steps, like eliminating aersols. Let's use sunscreen as an example: I could switch to an unscented zinc mineral sunscreen rather than my current titanium oxide fragranced sunscreen, but I'd be less likely to bother wearing sunscreen if I didn't like the feel of the sunscreen product I use, so I switched to the lotion formula from the aersolized one, and when I switched to Sun Bums aersolized formula it was because they lacked certain chemicals that cause damage to reefs that my Neutrogena spray had.

If we dive straight into the most ecologically gentle option and most minimalist skincare, we may become discouraged because of negative results we have and then decide to go back to our least ecologically friendly option, vs if we balance sustainability with personal comfort, we're more likely to stick with those more eco-friendly options and gradually continue our journey to even more sustainable options.

The reason abortion isn't considered an economic issue as all is because we fully expect moms to bear 100% of the work of raising the kid while still providing financially fir the family.

Mom can't find a babysitter? Sounds like she'll have to work nights while her mom watches the baby so dad can get some sleep. Or she'll stay home for 5 years and let her own career crater, and then maybe she'll be able to go back to work after racking up credit card debt, idk, that's her problem, not mine.

quick tip: if you feel unproductive no matter how much you're working and/or studying, what you're lacking is not more responsibilities, it's actually leisure. I know it may seem contradictory, but having hobbies, having a "busy" free time, filling up your schedule not only with obligations but also with things you do simply out of fun, with no goal in sight, are all extremely important to make you feel fulfilled and drive away this anxiety.

if you're only experiencing progress with the aim of improving your career and making money, but not nourishing your soul and spirit, you'll always feel like you're missing out or lacking in something.

find something that relaxes you, that takes your mind off your obligations and that makes you build a better relationship with your inner self, and this feeling will vanish.

i’m determined to keep my heart soft. to not let bitterness take root within me.

Not only was I at the club... I was a regular and my bartenders knew my name and special ordered a 0 proof gin for me when I stopped drinking for a year.
