write that book. publish that blog. apply for that job. dye your hair. cut your bangs. pick up that hobby that you’ve always wanted to try. wear that outfit that you loved but were too afraid to put on in public. life is way too short. be whoever you want to be, and do whatever you want. stop waiting for the right moment, because there will never be one. sometimes you just gotta say fuck it, and do it! live your life the way you want, and don’t ask for anyone’s approval.
Honour the little girl inside of you, the little girl that was abused, hurt, abandoned, who felt she was never enough. Let her feel safe, let her know she is loved, tell her everyday. Make her feel so special, she deserves it, keep her clean and warm and nourish her with the nutritious foods. Let her feel free. Let her embrace the things she loved doing, skating in the park, jumping on the trampoline, painting, running, swimming, making sandcastles, girly sleepovers, making stories, playing dressup. It might sound silly, it might sound irrelevant but honouring the little kid inside of you is going to bring you so much joy and fulfilment. That little version of you, still exists, and deserves to be honoured. Give yourself the love and care, and joy that was stolen from you as a child.
it’s comforting to know that the universe prefers life over death. they are constantly evolving animals to survive longer, one creatures death will allow for the continuation of another’s life, everything will collapse in on itself some day so that a new life could be created all over again. the universe is addicted to living, so when u make someone’s life easier to live you are literally doing gods work
you feel sensual and are ready to rejuvenate - you step into your clawfoot bathtub that’s full of rose petals, lavender oil, and pink salt
you’re wandering Paris - the sky looks like cotton candy, the Eiffel Tower is starting to twinkle, and there’s a fresh raspberry macaron in your hand
you’ve stumbled upon a fairy garden - the fairies whisper sweet compliments into your ears and sprinkle their dust atop your hair

the afternoon is hazy - you’re having a picnic with your lover on a soft blanket, surrounded by wildflowers, the air is full of pink lemonade and kisses
the year is 1946 - your pearl necklace decorates your neck, everything is in black and white, live jazz softly serenades your ears as you make unexpected eye contact with an attractive stranger

“Should you find yourself in a situation where you think the evil eye has been placed on a loved one, try the following folk remedy. Take a small amount of olive oil to your ancestor altar. Pray that they will conjure any evil eye that may have been placed on your loved one intentionally or unintentionally into the oil.
Place a dish of water over the victim’s head and add some of the oil drop by drop. Look at the patterns it forms. Do any of them look like eyes? (They will jump right out at you if they’re there.) Prick any eyes that you see in the oil with a pin or cut them with scissors. When you’re done, dump the water and oil down the toilet.”
- Excerpt from: "Honoring Your Ancestors: A Guide to Ancestral Veneration" by Mallorie Vaudoise.
Let go of what you don’t want. Release those thoughts. Every time you focus on what you don’t want, it’s taking you away from what you do want. Read that again. The internal chatter in your mind is either guiding you towards the life you dream of or a life of unhappiness. Awareness is key, choosing better thoughts is the answer to receiving the life you desire.
You want peace, happiness, success, abundance? That has to be your thought process every moment of everyday. Instead you get stuck in worry, fear, creating dramas in your mind. The only way to succeed is to choose better thoughts. Because with better thoughts come better actions, and with better actions comes a better life.
there is a light at the end of whatever darkness you are facing and it is warm and embracing and as nurturing as the sun.
