When your mental health and well-being is in concern, the best weight you'll ever lose, is the weight of other people's opinions of you 🙌🏾
We all have phases in our lives that are golden, intertwined with phases of dusty toxic rust.
There are 9 Billion people on this planet now right, which means every time you met them, you may have not been your best, but it was always authentically you. In pain, in suffering, in denial, intentionally deceitful, dishonest, distrustful or disrespectful.
I'm not making an excuse to be a Dick, I'm just highlighting that all of the above are symptoms of trauma, mistreatment, feeling alone and not wanting to participate in the world as best as you can.
When you truly believe in who you are and you find what you want to do to make your life and/or this world better; all of the above becomes a shadow in the distance.
I don't know how to explain this, but when you focus on yourself, self-love, self-care and treat yourself positively on all fronts, you open the world to see a person who can literally change a negative mind into an open mind. Something I've been doing for a very long time 🔥
It's literally my main calling in this universe and something I strive for with everyone I've ever come across. I, like many, have put my foot in the wrong place and did terrible things to others as a result of trauma. When we see the patterns in our behaviour and recognise why, we can teach ourselves to step away from those behaviours, create new alternatives and stay true to who we are. And, we all are:
Great people sharing a great place, regardless of where, you know i'll be there with a smile, a huge loud Island laugh, or a shoulder to cry on complemented by the biggest bear hug you've ever received!
It's that time of the year, stay awesome and keep an eye out for others around you 🙌🏾🙏🏾🖤🔥
Mad love,
