or your inner prompting, or whatever you prefer to call it
I was getting emotional last night past midnight thinking of a college friend I hadn’t heard from in a while (we talk briefly a few times a year), so I sent her a Marco Polo telling her how much I miss her and admire her and how proud I am of the work she’s been doing and that I just love her so much and wanted her to know
She messaged me back in tears because she’d had some really heavy blows to her self-esteem lately and hearing a friend tell her out of the blue all the reasons she was awesome was exactly what she needed
I know variations of this sentiment go around often here but it bears repeating!! Tell people you love them and why! 💌

I think it sends a life line sometimes and I try to do it as often as I remember.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve reached out to someone on a whim and told them I’m appreciative for having them in my life or the value they hold in my life and most people’s first reaction is to ask if everything is ok or I need to talk about something. It’s almost like they‘re caught off guard by hearing words like this and can only react by assuming something is wrong..we need to be giving each other uplifting words more often and spread the love around

bc it’s what I originally wanted when I first went to college at 17 but I was scared to make writing my job and got a B.S. in Nutrition instead lol
Now the goal is an eventual PhD in Victorian Literature but I’m just happy to have made it through this part at 32!
Stacked is everything I read in my English courses—barely pictured are the 5 stuffed accordion folders of other reading materials under my chair haha
