thinking about how incredible it is to be on a forever journey of cultivating a relationship with myself. it’s amazing to have friends and be a friend, and it’s also really special realizing you can be *that* friend to yourself. like whatever that friend means. that friend who’s always down for spontaneous shit? i can take myself to do that thing on a whim. that friend who always knows just how to comfort you when you’re low? deep down, i know exactly whatever that is better than anyone else could. that friend who stands up for you? darn tootin’ i’m gonna do that! i don’t know, i get excited thinking about the ways i can show up for me
a few people have said this to me and it's honestly made me so happy and such a great feeling to know you make other people feel at ease too. i really am a people person and just love getting to know anyone and everyone whether it's people's friends, family, partners etc.
And then that friend introduces you to someone and you hear them say the exact same thing about YOU.
I love many people but the "down from day one" circle is so small and special and rare and I feel like we don't celebrate that enough.
like. we are all so different and it makes us like a bunch of puzzle pieces that connect rly beautifully. and being able to inspire me, understand me and make me lafff ughhhhh yesss #friendship
kale big enough to carry like a child on your hip? you shall. ending up with so many flowers you have no choice but to gift them? cradle them in your arms like a little baby. tiny strawberries that you almost taste when you think of the words red or sweet? hold them in the palm of your hand, gently. maybe whisper to them.
being right is sexy. but so is admitting when you’re not. unabashedly. i’m not talking brushing it under the rug like you didn’t change your mind, i’m talking owning it. being human. learning something and sharing it with the people around you. sexy!
