I SO AGREE. HIWEVER,
I

As I am older, i want to please me.

I used to spend a lot of time trying to be everyone’s cup of tea. Softening my edges. Choosing my words carefully. Shrinking parts of myself so I didn’t make anyone uncomfortable. Wanting to be liked, understood, accepted by all.

But somewhere along the way, I realised how exhausting that is — and how much of me gets lost when I try to be palatable instead of powerful.

Now? I’d rather be someone’s shot of whiskey.
Strong. Honest. Warming. Not for everyone — and that’s okay.

Because the people who need what you carry don’t want watered-down versions of you. They want the real thing. The depth. The fire. The truth. The laugh that’s a little too loud. The heart that feels deeply. The voice that doesn’t apologise for taking up space.

This season of my life is about choosing authenticity over approval. About trusting that the right people will stay, and the rest were never meant to.

You don’t have to be liked by everyone to be deeply valued by someone.
So here’s your reminder — be bold. Be real. Be you. 🩷

Thanks Mermaid Musings for the inspiration x

Great artical. If we do not believe in ourselves, who will ?

Great artical. If we do not believe in ourselves, who will ?

So what — I’m positive.
Believe me, I know that not everything is roses. I’ve lived enough life to know that some days ache, some seasons stretch you thin, and some moments take more from you than you think you have to give.

But if I’m stuck riding this spinning ball of rock anyway, I’m going to make the best of it.

That doesn’t mean toxic positivity or pretending the hard stuff doesn’t exist. It means choosing hope when cynicism would be easier. It means noticing the small joys tucked into ordinary days. It means laughing loudly, loving deeply, and finding light even when the edges feel heavy.

I’ve learned that positivity isn’t about denying reality — it’s about deciding how much power you give it. I can acknowledge the pain and still choose gratitude. I can honour the struggle and still look for beauty.

This life is messy, unpredictable, and sometimes unfair. But it’s also miraculous. And while I’m here, I’m choosing to show up with an open heart, a grounded spirit, and the belief that joy is something we actively create.

So yes, I’m positive.
Not because life is perfect —
but because it’s happening, and I’m here for all of it. 🩷

“This is going to be your year.”
Not because everything will be easy. Not because nothing will hurt. But because you’re still standing — and that counts for more than you realise.

So dust off your boots and let’s get started.

This is the year you stop waiting for perfect conditions and start moving anyway. The year you trust that you already have what you need, even if you don’t have all the answers yet. The year you take one brave step, then another, even when your legs shake a little.

I’ve learnt that growth doesn’t come wrapped in comfort. It comes disguised as stretch, courage, and showing up on the days you’d rather hide. And yet — those are the days that shape you the most.

This year isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about coming home to yourself. Honouring how far you’ve come. Letting go of what no longer fits. Saying yes to what lights you up and no to what drains you.

So lace up. The road ahead won’t always be smooth, but it will be yours. And that’s the magic of it.

Here’s your reminder — you don’t need permission to begin.
This is your year. Start walking. 🩷

Thanks Cowgirl Boss for the inspiration x

I find the adage that a picture speaks louder than a thousand words to be particularly poignant. Similarly, I am convinced that poetry possesses a unique capacity to convey profound meaning. While the rationale behind this phenomenon is unclear to me, I intuitively feel that poetry is an inherently heartfelt medium. When we infuse our emotions into poetic verse, it becomes a powerful visual expression of peace and joy. 🌟💫🌈💖
