in other words, cut toxic people. if you’re not having lots of laughs with people you enjoy being around, you’re doing it wrong.

I don’t mean this in a let’s enforce toxic positivity way. And maybe this sounds simple and obvious but I’ve learned from my own experience and observations that it can be off-putting to others to always be complaining, criticizing, or saying negative things! It can really bring the energy down whether it’s in interactions with close friends, significant others, family, coworkers, dates, or strangers and it doesn’t make people feel good.
This isn’t to say that you should never have critical thoughts, engage in difficult conversations, or share your heavy emotions with people you trust. but I think this is something people can do without even realizing it’s a pattern for them and it has an effect on your own psyche as well imo… and it feels great to bring a little light into someone’s day 🌦️

Years ago, if a friend of mine was experiencing trouble at work or school or with their partner/other friends and asked me for advice or vented, I would very easily default to “quit!” or “drop out“ or “dump their ass you deserve better king/queen/my liege”
And as a result, no one improved, in fact we backslid into becoming reactive or destructive and eventually, bore no patience with one another because there was no good ground to stand on
Life has gotten better since I and others stopped abandoning ship at any sign of discomfort.
Don’t let your friends destroy their lives because you give them a stamp of approval!

Fam life is already stressful enough with our rights being debated over. Your friends and the people who surround you should match your energy and want the best quality of life for you.
