it is ironic how the way people will do anything to earn your forgiveness yet do barely anything to keep from hurting you in the first place.
in silence, thousands of unsaid words resound loudly.
i don't want to get to the point where i will be drained because of the career.
taking revenge against those who have caused harm to me and my loved ones is no longer something i do after coming to so many realisations. i mean, i'd rather focus my energy on improving my own character and just let the better version of myself speak the grace and class, which i believe are somethings they can't simply handle.
do not rush the healing process; take your time. just as a flower took a while to grow into a beautiful creature.
recovery can be difficult and can take a lot longer than you expected. don’t be hard on yourself for getting burnt out. have compassion even when it feels like your not recovering “fast enough” or “correctly.” everyone is on their own path.

I truly encourage you to add things that simply bring you joy to your list of things to do that day.
it doesn't have to be big, it can be as simple as making your favourite drink or food for lunch or spending some time on a hobby or watching a show you enjoy.
adding things to look forward to and giving yourself time to experience those things is just as important as doing every other thing on that list.
you're allowed to plan to do things for no other reason than it makes you happy.
“Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning how to dance in the rain.”
