🌙 THINGS I WISH SOMEONE WOULD HAVE EXPLAINED TO ME

Being special is a terrible foundation for self-worth.

I don't think our parents meant to do this.

Mine certainly didn't.

But many of us grew up being praised for being smart.
Talented.
Gifted.
Special.

And while those things sound beautiful, they can accidentally teach us that our value lives in our performance.

So we avoid things we're bad at.

We fear failure.

We quit when we're not immediately good.

We become adults who crave external validation because we learned our worth was something to earn instead of something we already possessed.

Maybe confidence doesn't come from being exceptional.

Maybe it comes from being willing.

Willing to fail.
Willing to learn.
Willing to be awkward.
Willing to start over.

Maybe our children don't need to hear:

"You're so smart."

Nearly as much as they need to hear:

"I'm proud of how hard you worked."

"I noticed you kept trying."

"You didn't give up."

"You learned something."

Because being human isn't a performance.

And you don't have to be exceptional to deserve love.

🚨THINGS I WISH WERE EXPLAINED TO ME AT 16 ⚠️

⚠️ For the teenagers and younger adults:

You do not owe someone access to your location, your passwords, your phone, your body, your time, or your friendships to prove that you love them.

● Jealousy is not proof of love.
● Possessiveness is not romance.
● Constant texting is not intimacy.
● Isolation is not loyalty.

And having boundaries does not make you selfish.

Love should make you feel safe enough to become more of yourself...
not less.

Love isn't possession.

You are not meant to be owned.
You are meant to be cherished.

Somewhere along the way, many of us learned that love is measured by how tightly someone holds on, how much they need us, or how much we sacrifice ourselves to keep them close.

But healing love doesn't suffocate.

It makes room.

Room for your sadness.
Room for your silence.
Room for your story.
Room for the parts of you that are still growing.

Real commitment isn't asking you to shrink.
It isn't asking you to perform.
It isn't loving you only when you're easy.

It's choosing to stay beside one another without trying to possess, fix, or control.

Because when fear shows up, sacred love doesn't ask,
"How do I protect myself?"

It asks,
"How do we protect each other?"

Love doesn't erase pain.
It sits beside it.

Love doesn't clip wings.
It admires them.

Love doesn't demand perfection.
It creates safety.

And maybe that's what makes a relationship sacred.

Not that there is never fear.

But that both people keep choosing presence over possession.

💐🫂 Happy Mother's Day 💐💗

Today, we honor the mothers.
The women who carried us, raised us, protected us, fought for us, and loved us in the best ways they knew how.

We honor the mothers who are still here, showing up day after day even when they are exhausted, overwhelmed, grieving, healing, or quietly carrying the weight of everyone around them.

We honor the mothers who had to become both softness and survival. The ones who wipe tears while hiding their own. The ones who keep going even when they feel like they have nothing left to give.

We honor the women who mother through love alone — stepmothers, grandmothers, aunties, bonus moms, guardians, mentors, chosen mothers, and the women who nurture others simply because it is who they are.

We honor the fathers who had to step into both roles. The men who became comfort, safety, guidance, tenderness, and home when life asked them to carry more than they ever expected.

And today, we also hold space for the mothers no longer with us.
For the ache of missing their voice, their touch, their laugh, their presence. For the people spending today with memories instead of embraces. Love does not disappear with loss, and neither does grief.

Motherhood is not just biology.
It is devotion. Presence. Sacrifice. Fierce protection. Unconditional love. It is the quiet magic of someone choosing, over and over again, to care for another soul.

So today, whether you are celebrating, grieving, longing, remembering, surviving, or simply making it through the day…

You are seen.
You are appreciated.
And your love has mattered more than you will ever fully know.

Happy Mother’s Day 🤍
