28 things i learned at 28

you’re allowed to simply Exist. productivity is not a competition that you are constantly losing, and you don’t need to earn your rest

there will never be a moment quite like this one again - take the picture

leave your work at work! those after hours emails can wait until morning to earn your time

how hard you work doesn’t go unnoticed or unappreciated

on that note, it’s okay to way to be noticed or appreciated for how hard you work

you’ll never stop surprising yourself

don’t forget that everything you do, you aren’t doing it for numbers or notoriety; you’re doing it for your younger self who would be so amazed you’ve done what you’ve done

no one will ever be as hard on you as you are on yourself

give yourself a break from time to time

doing your best is, in fact, doing enough

you’ll earn that money back but the memories are irreplaceable

disney is, in fact, the most magical place on earth

spending time with your best friend will truly heal your soul in ways you can never explain

you’re going to say the wrong thing. you’re going to do the wrong thing. being wrong is a part of life you can’t avoid

your anxiety will be so loud, it’s okay to ask to be loved louder

getting lost in a book is a great escape unlike any other

the more you focus on your recovery, the more you’re going to notice the habits that lead you to choose recovery

don’t hate yourself for sucking in your stomach in photos

don’t be so hard on yourself for having to actively make the decision to eat

just because it doesn’t come naturally to you, doesn’t mean it’s impossible for you to do

you can do hard things

the bad days can, and will, be forgotten

the good days can, and will, happen

when in doubt, shave your head

you don’t need to or be anyone that you aren’t; who you are is just fine

you’re hurting right now; you haven’t been hurting the entire time

even though it can be hard to remember such a time, there have been moments without pain

it’s okay that you didn’t cherish them at the time

Day 58/365

sometimes that everything you want that might not come in your way that events not turn out that way you want them too

Love comes to the door asking for nothing in return. That's how it functions. But the world will knock your door, or may even impolitely bang the door, or may even outrageously break in and see what it can get from you and may even be audacious to sell you off. Don't trade your soul for a paltry gain. You'll recognise in an instance if the one standing by the door is pure love or just another phoney seeking to gain out of you...

Random Xpressions

right heart wrong generation

solitude

Does anyone else just randomly feel like they're annoying everyone around them and that they should just disappear for a while to give everyone else a break from their existence, or is that just me?

Watching Grey's Anatomy and the first line of this episode is:

"The problem with being a resident is you feel crazy all the time"

And I felt that

writing is just reverse Pictionary. put a little picture from your brain into another brain. no drawing allowed

Worry

I worried about worlds and wars, Monsters and lords, I worried about breakfast at dinner, Death and disease, Wolves in my backyard I worried about disposable thoughts, About worry itself I lived in pain, Danced with enigmas And when the end arrived I still wasn’t prepared.
